उत्तर
R = 100 Ω
l = 5m
`A = 3 xx 10^-7 "m"^2`
`K = (rho l)/A` ⇒ `therefore rho = (RA)/l`
`δ = (100 xx 3 xx 10^-7)/5 = 60 xx 10^-7`
= `6 xx 10^-6 Omega-m`

Write the relation between resistance and electrical resistivity of the material of a conductor in the shape of a cylinder of length `'l'` and area of cross-section `'A'` . Hence derive the S.I. unit of electrical resistivity.
Assertion: Conductors allow the current to flow through themselves.
Reason: They have free charge carriers.
