Which of the following statements are correct? (A) The resistance of a conductor and its resistivity both depend on temperature. Choose the correct answer from the options given below: |
(A), (B) and (D) only (A), (D) and (C) only (B), (D) and (C) only (A) and (C) only |
(A), (B) and (D) only |
The correct answer is Option (1) → (A), (B) and (D) only (A) True — Resistance $R = \rho \frac{L}{A}$ and resistivity $\rho$ both vary with temperature. (B) True — For $L = 1\,m$ and $A = 1\,m^2$, $R = \rho \frac{L}{A} = \rho$. (C) False — Resistance depends on cross-sectional area, but resistivity does not. (D) True — Resistivity depends only on material, not on dimensions. Correct Statements: (A), (B), (D) |
