The resistance of a uniform metallic conductor is ______.
Question

The resistance of a uniform metallic conductor is ______.

A.

inversely proportional to its area

B.

inversely proportional to its electrical resistivity

C.

inversely proportional to its length

D.

directly proportional to its area

Correct option is A


Formula for Resistance: The resistance (R) of a conductor is given by:

Where:
· R : Resistance.
· ρ : Electrical resistivity of the material.
· L : Length of the conductor.
· A : Cross-sectional area of the conductor.
Hence, resistance of a uniform metallic conductor is inversely proportional to its area.
