Current Electricity

  1. ​The resistivity (specific resistance) of a copper wire​​
    1. increases with increase in its temperature ​
    2. decreases with increase in its cross-section ​
    3. ​increases with increase in its length ​
    4. increases with increase in its cross-section
Correct Option: A

Resistivity of copper wire increases with increase in temprature as ρt = ρ0(1 + αt)
Copper being a metal has positive coefficient of resistivity.
