A rectangular block of iron has dimensio...

A rectangular block of iron has dimension `1.2 cm xx 1.2cm xx 1.5cm`. A potential difference is to be applied to the block between parallel sides and in such a way that those sides are equipotential surfaces. What is the resistance of the block if the two parallel sides are (1) the square ends (with dimensions `1.2 cm xx 1.2 cm)` and (2) two rectangular sides (with dimensions `1.2cm xx 15cm)?`

To solve the problem, we will calculate the resistance of the rectangular block of iron in two different scenarios as described. ### Given Data: - Dimensions of the block: - Length (L) = 1.5 cm - Width (W) = 1.2 cm - Height (H) = 1.2 cm - Resistivity of iron (ρ) is a constant value that we will use in our calculations. ...
