Question

The resistivity of a certain material is 0.6 Ωm. The material is most likely to be:; A. an insulator; B. a superconductor; C. a conductor; D. a semiconductor

Answer 1

Answer:

(D) A semiconductor

Explanation:

Resistivity:

The specific electrical resistance of a material is known as its resistivity. The main work of resistivity is to oppose the flow of current in the wire. It gives the detail of intrinsic property of the material used in the wire.

As we know ,

The resistivity of material like Silicon and Germanium are in the range of 0.6 Ωm. And we also know that these materials are a semiconductor.

Hence, the material is most likely to be a Semiconductor.

Therefore, the correct option is (D).

Answer 2
