Question

11) Specific resistance is also called ? and is abbreviated with the capital letter K or the Greek letter ρ (rho).

Answer 1

Resistivity

Explanation:

Resistivity : It is a fundamental property of a material that measures how strongly a particular material opposes the flow of electric current. It is also known as specific resistance.

• A low resistivity indicates a material that easily allows the flow of electric current.

• Resistivity is commonly represented by the Greek letter ρ (rho) or abbreviated with a a capital letter K. The SI unit of electrical resistivity is the ohm-metre (Ω⋅m).

Hence, the correct answer for the blank is Resistivity.
