Answer:

Conductivity,
\sigma=500\ (\Omega-m)^(-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The resistivity of a material,
\rho=2* 10^(-3)\ \Omega-m

We need to find the conductivity of the material.

We know that the reciprocal of resistivity is called conductivity.


\sigma=(1)/(\rho)\\\\\sigma=(1)/(2* 10^(-3))\\\\\sigma=500\ (\Omega-m)^(-1)

So, the conductivity of the material is
500\ (\Omega-m)^(-1).
