Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) (D) < (C) < (B) < (A)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Resistivities (approximate, at 20°C): Copper: \(1.68 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega \cdot m\) Gold: \(2.44 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega \cdot m\) Aluminium: \(2.82 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega \cdot m\) Tungsten: \(5.60 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega \cdot m\) Increasing order: Copper < Gold <…
