Question

differentiate between electric resistance and specific resistance​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

specific resistance:At a fixed temperature amount of resistance offered in the flow of current by a conductor having unit length and unit cross section is called its specific resistance. The unit of specific resistance is ohm-meter (Ω-m). Specific resistivity of conductor depends on the material of the conductor and its temperature.

electric resistance:Resistance is an electrical quantity that measures how the device or material reduces the electric current flow through it. The resistance is measured in units of ohms (Ω). If we make an analogy to water flow in pipes, the resistance is bigger when the pipe is thinner, so the water flow is decreased.
