Answers
resistivity of a conductor: a substance which allows passage to electric charges through it easily is called as the resistivity of a conductor.
HOPE THIS ANSWER HELPS YOU
Answer:
Define resistance of a conductor.?
→ The resistance of a conductor is defined as the obstruction offered by the conductor to the flow of electric current.
» According to ohm's law
» R = V / I
» R = Resistance
» V = Potential difference
» I = Current flowing
→ Therefore , resistance of the conductor (R) may be defined as the ratio of the potential difference (V) between the two ends of the conductor to the current ( I ) flowing through it.
→ Resistance of the conductor is due to the collision of electrons with the atoms / ions of the conductor , while drifting towards the positive and of the conductor.
→ Resistance of the conductor depends upon the dimensions.
» i.e.
1). Length ( L )
2). Cross-section area ( A ) of the conductor and also the nature of the material of the conductor.
