What is the difference between resistance and resistivity detail explaination
Resistance
Resistance is the opposition that a substance offers to the flow of electric current
𝑠𝑦𝑚𝑏𝑜𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑅
si unit of resistance is ohm denoted by Ω
According to ohms law V=𝐼𝑅⇒𝑅=𝑉/𝐼
Resistance depending on dimension of the wire
𝑅∝𝐿
𝑅∝1/𝐴
𝑅∝𝐿/𝐴=𝜌 𝐿/𝐴 rho 𝜌=𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑡𝑦
Resistivity
Resistivity, is a fundamental property of a material that quantifies how strongly it resists or conducts the flow of electric current.
𝑅=𝜌 𝐿/𝐴
𝜌=𝑅 𝐴/𝐿
If 𝐴=1𝑚^2 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐿=1𝑚
𝜌=𝑅
Different materials have different values of resistivity
