The ratio of the resistances of the two conductors is 16:9

Explanation:

Given:

The ratio of lengths of two conductors

$\frac{l_1}{l_2}=\frac{4}{3}$

The ratio of cross-sectional areas of two conductors

$\frac{A_1}{A_2}=\frac{1}{2}$

The ratio of resistivities of two conductors

$\frac{\rho_1}{\rho_2}=\frac{2}{3}$

To find out:

The ratio of resistances $\frac{R_1}{R_2}$

Solution:

We know that

The relation between resistance $R$ length $l$ , cross-sectional area $A$ and specific resistance [/tex]\rho[/tex] of a conductor is given by

$R=\rho\frac{l}{A}$

Thus,

For two conductors

$R_1=\rho_1\frac{l_1}{A_1}$

And $R_2=\rho_2\frac{l_2}{A_2}$

$\frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{\rho_1}{\rho_2}\times\frac{l_1}{l_2}\frac{A_2}{A_1}$

$\implies \frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{2}{1}$

$\implies \frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{16}{9}$

$\implies R_1:R_2=16:9$

Hope this answer is helpful.
