The wires may differ in ( check all that apply) _ a. length _b. cross-sectional area _c. resistivity _d. amount of electric current passing through them Hint 1) The resistivity of a metallic conductor, such as copper, nearly always increases with increasing temperature. Hint 2) For an ohmic conductor, that is, a conductor such as copper that obeys Ohm's law, the resistance R is proportional to the length L and inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area A. That is, R=ρL/A where ρ ie. rho, is the resistivity of the material. Note that ρ is a characteristic of the specific material and may vary with temperature.
