Most telephone cables are made up of copper wire of either 24 or 26 gauge. if the resistance of the 24-gauge wire is 137 ohm/mile and the resistance of the 26-gauge wire is 220 ohm/mile, what is the ratio of the diameter of the 24-gauge wire to that of the 26-gauge wire?

Which best describes the first law of thermodynamics as compared to the second law of thermodynamics? a. the first law describes how thermal energy is conserved but not the direction it moves. b. the first law describes the direction thermal energy moves but not how it is conserved. c. the first law describes how thermal energy can be created but not how it can be destroyed. d. the first law describes how thermal energy can be destroyed but not how it can be created.
