Question
The resistance and the magnitude of the current depend on the path that the current takes. The drawing shows three situations in which the current takes different paths through a piece of material.
Each of the rectangular pieces is made from a material whose resistivity is p = 1.50 x 102 *m, and the unit of length in the drawing is Lo
battery. Find (a) the resistance and (b) the current in each case.
