Yes. The exact effect - whether it increases or decreases - depends on the material.
An increase in current will only affect resistance if it causes the temperature of the conductor to change. For pure metallic conductors, and increase in temperature will cause an increase in resistance.
If we increase the length, the resistance will increase and vice versa.
resistance depends on temperature too.. we know that R=R0( 1 + rho (change in temperature) ) where R= present resistance R0=resisance at 00C rho= resistivity of a material now if the change of temperature is positive , means if the temerature increases then the resistance will also increase and vice versa
The region where resistance decreases with increase in temperature.
Electrical Resistance depends on three factors: Resistivity; Area; Length.Resistivity is the property of the matter. More Resistivity means more resistance.More Area means less resistance.More length means more resistance.R= Resistivity. Length/Area
It depends. In general, pure metal conductors increase in resistance as their temperature increases; some alloys (e.g. constantan) are manufactured to maintain an approximately-constant resistance for changes in temperature. Materials such as carbon (and most insulators) exhibit a fall in resistance as their temperatures increase.
Increase in resistance means that when the resistance of the substance increase by application of some external sources like temperature etc. or when the flow of current through the substance gradually decreases then the resistances increases. Vice versa in case for decrease in resistance.Alternative AnswerResistance is determined by the length, cross-sectional area, and resistivity of a conductor. Resistivity is, in turn, affected by temperature -so temperature indirectly affects resistance.These are the only factors that affect resistance. Voltage and current have no direct effect whatsoever on resistance. Current can affect resistance indirectly if it causes the conductor's temperature to increase.For AC circuits, 'skin effect', due to frequency, causes the current to flow towards the surface of a conductor which acts to reduce the effective cross-sectional area of that conductor. So, frequency can also indirectly affect resistance.
Ambient temperature might affect the readings of the resistance value you would measure because the resistance of some materials changes with the temperature.
The resistance of pure metallic conductors increases with temperature, because the resistivity of these conductors increase with temperature.
NO. In a semiconductor the resistance decreases with increase of temperature. It is their natural behavior unlike conductors and insulators. If we decrease the temperature their resistance increases. At 0 degree kelvin all semiconductors will act like perfect insulators.
Resistance increases as temperature increases. If Voltage is held constant then according to Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance then current would decrease as resistance increases.
If temperature increases the resistance will also increase. This is why a light bulb is a non ohmic conductor. As the light bulb filament gets hotter its resistance will increase.Additional CommentsIt depends upon the material involved. In general, for pure metal conductors an increase in temperature will cause their resistance to increase. For insulators, an increase in temperature will cause their resistance to decrease -which is why excessive temperature is often the main reason why insulation fails. Alloys can be manufactured that will maintain a relatively constant resistance over a wide range of temperatures.Temperature affects resistance indirectly. What is actually being affected is the material's resistivity. Resistivity is one of the factors that determines resistance.The resistance of any given material can be calculated over wide range of temperatures, using the temperature coefficient of resistance for that material.
