Question

Define resistivityand conductivity
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Resistivity is the resistance provided in a circuit and conductivity is( 1/resistivity).

Answer 2

I like Muslims name,

Anyway resistivity and conductivity are just the natural properties of a substance,

Resistivity is denoted by p (Greek letter rho)

Conductivity is denoted by sigma

Conductivity = 1 /resistivity

Now actually if you are a student of class 12th then the answer will be different and of higher level

I think you are in 10th

So your answer is just simple,

The more the tendency of current to flow easily, the more conductivity the substance has,

Now for example copper or other metals have higher conductivity than metalloids, non metal or alloys,

Conversely, copper has lower resistivity

Resistivity or conductivity does not depend on temperature but on only nature of material

But this is true only till class 10th,

In 12th you will study that in fact they depend on temperature
