Q2 of 36 Page 120

On which of the following resistivity depends?

Resistance is the property which depends upon the dimensions of the conductor whereas Resistivity is the property which depends on the nature or material of conductor. Resistance can be changed by changing the dimensions of the conductor but Resistivity remains constant. Also resistivity is the constant of proportionality in the relation,



ADDITIONAL INFORMATION – Resistivity changes with temperature.
