In Figure (a) below, a 10.44 V battery is connected to a resistive strip that consists of three sections with the same cross-sectional areas but different conductivities. Figure (b) gives the electric potential V(x) versus position x along the strip. The horizontal scale is set by x,- 10.24 mm. Section 3 has conductivity 3.010 x 10' (0-m)¹. What is the conductivity of section (a) 1 and (b) 2?
