Two square metal plates $A$ and $B$ are of the same thickness and material. The side of $B$ is twice that of $A$. These are connected as shown in series. If the resistances of $A$ and $B$ are denoted by $R_A$ and $R_B,$ then $(R_A/R_B)$ is
  • A$\frac {1}{2}$
  • B$\frac {2}{1}$
  • C$\frac {1}{1}$
  • D$\frac {4}{1}$
