Expert Solution
Step 1: Resistance of A and B

A) The resistance of A is given by,

                            bold italic R subscript bold A bold space bold equals bold space bold space fraction numerator bold rho bold space bold L over denominator bold pi bold space bold r to the power of bold 2 end fraction bold space

B) The resistance of B is given by,

                            R subscript B space equals space rho space fraction numerator L over denominator pi space left parenthesis 2 r right parenthesis squared end fraction

bold italic R subscript bold B bold space bold equals bold space bold 1 over bold 4 bold space fraction numerator bold rho bold space bold L over denominator bold pi bold space bold r to the power of bold 2 end fraction
