What is a physical property is shown by scratching one material with another?
hardness
Is electrical resistance and electrical resistivity the same?
No. Resistivity is a material property, and is defined as the resistance for a piece of material of some standard size.
What is a material that has low resistance?
what is the property that makes it harder for charge to pass through
Is resistivity of a material depends upon the dimensions of a material?
No. Resistivity is a property of the material itself and does not change no matter how much of that material you have. Resistance, however, does depend on the dimensions of the material.
What three factors determine the amount of resistance of a material?
In solids, the resistance varies directly as the length of the object and inversely as the cross-sectional ares of the object and coefficient of resistance of the material which is an inherent property that each solid (metal or other) has.
Which Property of material offers resistance to scratching is?
Hardness
Which physical property is shown by scratching one material with another?
Hardness
What is a physical property is shown by scratching one material with another?
hardness
Is acid resistance a physical or chemical property?
Any chemical resistance , including acid resistance, is a physical property of a material.
Why resistance doesnot depend on frequency of ac?
Because Resistance is material property...

What happens to the resistance as the area increases?
Double the area means half the resistance. Resistance = resistivity times length / area. Resistivity is a property of the material only.

Which property is a measure of a minerals resistance to being scratched?
A rock's hardness is its resistance to scratching or abrasion. This is commonly measured using the MOH's scale of hardness.
What is the difference between resistance and resistivity?
Resistance is a property of a resistor, a circuit device with a "port" of 2 connections. Resistance is ratio of voltage across port/current looped through it; this is constant for most resistors.Resistivity is a bulk property of a material, ratio of voltage/distance to current/area through a solid. Typically a constant.AnswerResistance is the opposition a material offers to the drift of current through that material, and is expressed in ohms. Resistance is directly-proportional to the resistivity of the material and to its length, and inversely-proportional to its cross-sectional area.Resistivity, on the other hand, is the property a material has which makes different materials, of identical physical dimensions, have different values of resistance. It is defined as 'the resistance of a unit length of a material of uniform cross-sectional area'. In SI, this equates to the resistance between the opposite faces of a metre cube (NOT cubic metre -they're different!) of a material, and is expressed in ohm metres. Resistivity is affected by temperature, so it is always quoted at a specific temperature, usually 20 degrees Celsius.Resistivity allows us to compare the resistance of different materials without taking their physical dimensions into account.
