Question

What is the difference between resistance and resistivity

Answer 1

Here is your answer-

Resistance is the property of conductor to resist the flow of current. Resistance depends on Material, length and area of cross-section of wire and temperature of the place. It's SI unit is Ohm.

Resistivity is the property of conductor due to which it offers Resistance to the flow of current. It only depends on Material of the wire and temperature of the place. It's SI unit is Ohm-metre.

Answer 2

Resistance is the obstruction caused to resist the flow of charges. It S I unit is ohm. It can change. Resistivity is the resistance offered in the area of cross section of a conductor. It's SI unit is ohm metre. It is cannot change
