Low resistance.
AnswerSince resistance is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area of a conductor, increasing the diameter ('thickness') of a conductor will reduce its resistance.
For example, doubling the diameter of a circular-section conductor will quadruple its cross-sectional area, and reduce its resistance by one quarter.
Thin wires have high resistance because they offer more obstruction to the flow of electrical current compared to thicker wires. This increased obstruction results in higher resistance, as described by Ohm's law.
All wires have a resistance, as does everything else in the universe. Conductors like metal and carbon generally have low resistances where as non conductors have a very high resistance. Think of it like friction, but electric.
A short thick copper wire at low temperature would have lower resistance compared to a long thin iron wire at high temperature. This is because resistance is inversely proportional to cross-sectional area and directly proportional to temperature and length of the wire. The short thick copper wire has a larger cross-sectional area, which results in lower resistance.
Graphite is low resistance of electricity...
This is to avoid energy losses in the connecting wires.
Viscosity is a fluids resistance to flow. A high viscosity fluid would be thick, a low viscosity fluid would be thin.
On a multimeter, a high resistance would indicate a high Ohmic value and a low resistance would indicate a low Ohmic value. Specific values would be relative to device you are measuring.
It depends on the application. Voltmeters have a high internal resistance, while ammeters have a low internal resistance.
Low resistance lets electrons through easy, and high makes it harder for them to pass. Basically electricity is harder to flow through high resistance and vice versa.

Usually low resistance is better.
Low resistance wires allow for more efficient transfer of electricity as less energy is lost due to heat production. This can result in reduced energy costs and overall improved performance of the electrical system. Additionally, low resistance wires can help to reduce the risk of overheating and potential hazards such as fires.
