In figure shows a rectangular block with dimensions $x,\, 2x$ and $4x$. Electrical contacts can be made to the block between opposite pairs of faces (for example, between the faces labelled $A-A, B-B$ and $C-C$). Between which two faces would the maximum electrical resistance be obtained ($A-A$ : Top and bottom faces, $B-B$ : Left and right faces, $C-C$ : Front and rear faces)
  • A$A-A$
  • B$B-B$
  • C$C-C$
  • D
    Same for all three pairs
