Consider four conducting materials: copper,tungsten,mercury,and aluminium with resistivity $\rho_{C}, \rho_{T}, \rho_{M}$,and $\rho_{A}$ respectively. Then:

  • A
    $\rho_{A} > \rho_{T} > \rho_{C}$
  • B
    $\rho_{C} > \rho_{A} > \rho_{T}$
  • C
    $\rho_{A} > \rho_{M} > \rho_{C}$
  • D
    $\rho_{M} > \rho_{A} > \rho_{C}$
