Include an illustration of the circuit in the solutions. Thank you An aluminum wire 7.5 meters long is connected in a parallel with a copper wire6 meters long. When a current of 5 amperes is passed through the combination,it is found that the current in the aluminum wire is 3 amperes. The diameter ofthe aluminum wire is 1 millimeter. Determine the diameter of the copper wire.Resistivity of copper is 0.017 micro-ohm - meter; that of the aluminum is 0.028micro-ohm - meter.

According to the question we have to calculate the value of diameter of copper wire.

Answered: An aluminum wire 7.5 meters long is…
