$A$ brass disc and a carbon disc of same radius are assembled alternatively to make a cylindrical conductor. The resistance of the cylinder is independent of the temperature. The ratio of thickness of the brass disc to that of the carbon disc is [$\alpha$ is temperature coefficient of resistance and neglect linear expansion].
