$A$ room has an $AC$ running for $5$ hours a day at a voltage of $220$ $V$. The wiring of the room consists of $Cu$ wire of $1$ $mm$ radius and a length of $10$ $m$. Power consumption per day is $10$ commercial units. What fraction of it goes into Joule heating in the wires? What would happen if the wiring is made of aluminium of the same dimensions? $(\rho_{Cu} = 1.7 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega m, \rho_{Al} = 2.7 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega m)$
