what is specific resistance and resistivity upon on what factor does it depend
Answers
Answer:
- The resistance of a wire of that material of unit length and unit cross-sectional area.
- The resistivity of a material depends on its nature and the temperature of the conductor,
Explanation:
Specific resistance is defined as the resistance offered per unit length and unit cross-sectional area when the known amount of voltage is applied. The mathematical representation is as follows:
ρ=RAL
Where,
⍴: specific resistance
R: resistance
A: cross-sectional area
L: length of the material
Specific resistance is the reciprocal of specific conductance, which is defined as a measure of a material’s ability to conduct electricity.
RESISTIVITY: It is defined as the resistance of a conductor of unit length and unit area of cross-section . It's SI unit is ohm meter.
FACTORS:
1. Nature of substance
2. Temperature
* resistivity of a material doesn't depend on its length or thickness.
