Question

List the factors on which the resistance of conductor in the shape of a wire depends

Answer 1

You Must Be aware of this formula

R = pl/a

through this equation it is obvious that resistance depends upon resistivity meaning nature of conductor because every conductor will jave different resistivity

and resistance is directly proportional to length of the wire

and inversely proportional to the cross section of wire

be happy keep learning

remember learning is a slow process

Answer 2

The resistance of a conductor in the shape of the wire depends on the following four factors,

• Length of the conductor,

• Area of cross section of the conductor,

• Material of the conductor and

• Temperature of the conductor.

The above factors can also be expressed in the formula as mentioned below,

R ∝ l ,  R ∝ l /A , R =ρ l /A
