Low resistivity materials are used in__________?
Correct answer: D. all above applications
- A. transformer, motor and generator windings
- B. transmission and distribution lines
- C. house wiring
- D. all above applications
Explanation
Low-resistivity conductors reduce I²R losses and voltage drop, so they are used in machine windings, transmission and distribution lines, and house wiring. Copper and aluminium are common examples.
