Two conductors have the same resistance at

Question:

Two conductors have the same resistance at $0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ but their temperature coefficients of resistance are $\alpha_{1}$ and $\alpha_{2}$. The respective temperature coefficients of their series and parallel combinations are nearly:

  1. $\frac{\alpha_{1}+\alpha_{2}}{2}, \frac{\alpha_{1}+\alpha_{2}}{2}$

  2. $\frac{\alpha_{1}+\alpha_{2}}{2}, \alpha_{1}+\alpha_{2}$

  3. $\alpha_{1}+\alpha_{2}, \frac{\alpha_{1}+\alpha_{2}}{2}$

  4. $\alpha_{1}+\alpha_{2}, \frac{\alpha_{1} \alpha_{2}}{\alpha_{1}+\alpha_{2}}$
