Two wires $A$ and $B$ of the same length and of the same material have the respective radii $r_1$ and $r_2$. Their one end is fixed to a rigid support,and at the other end,an equal twisting couple is applied. The ratio of the angle of twist at the end of $A$ to the angle of twist at the end of $B$ will be:
