Two wires of same material and same length have radii r_1 and r_2 respectively. Compare their resistances.

Two wires A and B of same length and of the same material have the respective radii r_(1) and r_(2) . Their one end is fixed with a rigid support, and at other end equal twisting couple is applied. Then the ratio of the angle of twist at the end of A and the angle of twist at the end of B will be

The Young's modulus of steel is twice that of brass. Two wires of the same length and of the same area of cross section, one of steel and another of brass are suspended from the same roof. If we want the lower ends of the wires to be at the same level, then the weight added to the steel and brass wires must be in the ratio of
