Three copper wires of lengths and cross-sectional areas are $(l, A)$,$(2l, A/2)$,and $(l/2, 2A)$. Resistance is minimum in

The temperature coefficient of resistance at $0\,^{\circ}\text{C}$ is $\alpha = 0.00125\,^{\circ}\text{C}^{-1}$. At a temperature of $25\,^{\circ}\text{C}$,the resistance of a conductor is $1\,\Omega$. Find the temperature at which the resistance becomes $1.2\,\Omega$.

One $kg$ of copper is drawn into a wire of $1 \ mm$ diameter and a wire of $2 \ mm$ diameter. The resistance of the two wires will be in the ratio:

Two different conductors have the same resistance at $0\,^{\circ}C.$ It is found that the resistance of the first conductor at $t_1\,^{\circ}C$ is equal to the resistance of the second conductor at $t_2\,^{\circ}C.$ The ratio of the temperature coefficients of resistance of the conductors,$\frac{\alpha_1}{\alpha_2}$ is
