In an aluminium $(A1)$ bar of square cross section, a square hole is drilled and is filled with iron ( $Fe$ ) as shown in the figure. The electrical resistivities of $A 1$ and $Fe$ are $2.7 \times 10^{-8} \ \Omega m$ and $1.0 \times 10^{-7} \ \Omega m$, respectively. The electrical resistance between the two faces $P$ and $Q$ of the composite bar is
  • A$\frac{2475}{64} \mu \Omega$
  • B$\frac{1875}{64} \mu \Omega$
  • C$\frac{1875}{49} \mu \Omega$
  • D$\frac{2475}{132} \mu \Omega$
