Two wires made of copper and aluminum have the same length and diameter. The wires are fused together end-to-end to form a single wire. A potential difference is applied to the ends of the wire by a battery so that current flows along the wire. What is the ratio of the electron drift velocity between the two metals, reported as ?

5. Two wires, A and B, are made of the same metal and have equal length, but the resistance of wire A is 3 times the resistance of wire B. How do their diameters compare? (5pt)
two wires, a and b, have the same length and are made of the same material, but wire a has one-half the resistance of wire b. what is the ratio of the diameters, da/db?
Consider the two cylindrical wires of lengths l1 =3.8m and l2=2m are merged back to back as shown in the figure below to form a single wire. The wires have the radii of r1=3mm and r2= 8mm and the current runs along the lengths of the wires. If the thin and the thick wires resistivities are p1=152x10-6Ω.m and p2=201x10-6Ω.m respectively, determine the resistance of the wire. Please express your answer in units of Ω using one decimal places.
The picture shows a battery connected to two wires in parallel. Both wires are made of the same material and are of the same length, but the diameter of wire A is twice the diameter of wire B. True or False for the following: 1) The resistance of wire B is four times as large as the resistance of wire A. 2) The power dissipated in wire A is 16 times the power dissipated in wire B. 3) The voltage...
