Electric Potential Difference Problem
So it seems like it is a one dimensional problem. Have you been introduced how to calculate electrical fields yet ?- Lazar Lakic

A copper wire and an iron wire - Potential difference
On the right track , try to Calculate Rcopper and RIron and the current separately. I think you are supposed to find the conductivity of Iron and copper in your book as they are not stated in the problem.- Lazar Lakic

A copper wire and an iron wire - Potential difference
Ah... I think its a remix of Ohm law, V=RI , where they have rewritten the resistance as L/(σ*A) , where σ is the conductivity of a given material. I not entirely sure tho, some units on the calculations would have helped a lot hehe- Lazar Lakic
