What is the resistance of a conductor directly proportional to?
- A Cross section
- B Length
- C Density
- D Melting point
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length. This means that as the length of the conductor increases, the resistance also increases. This relationship can be explained by the fact that as the length of the conductor increases, the number of collisions between electrons and atoms within the conductor also increases. These collisions impede the flow of electrons, resulting in a higher resistance. Therefore, the longer the conductor, the higher its resistance will be.
