Does silver have very low resistivity?
yes, therefore it is a very good conductor of electricity.
How do you convert conductivity to resistivity?
Conductivity is a measure of the ability of a substance to conduct electricity. Resistivity is a measure of how strongly a substance resists the flow of an electric current. So conductivity and resistivity are opposed to each other. A good conductor like copper has a low resistivity, and a good insulator like glass has a low conductivity and a high resistivity. Mathematically, conductivity and resistivity are inverses of each other, so it is quite easy to convert conductivity to resistance.
Does a good conductor has a high resistance?
No, a good conductor has a low resistance.
What does break resistance means?
Resistivity is the ability of any metal or conductor to resist the flow of current depending on the diameter of the conductor.Electric fuse is an alloy with low resistivity and breaks when the resistance is high.This is the point of break resistance. Literary meaning of break resistance would be an act of greater force to break any opposing force as a breakthrough the defence.
Difference between semi conductor and semi insulator?
some semiconductors have comparatively low resistivity, and this is due to their containing electrically active impurities with energy-levels near a band edge. Others have very high resistivity and this is due to their containing a predominance of impurities with levels far from the band edges, that is, far compared with the thermal energy kT. These latter materials are often referred to as insulators, but since they can carry electronic currents we prefer to introduce the term 'semi-insulator' to describe them.
What is it called if a material conducts easily?
It is said to have a low resistance:A low thermal resistivity for heatA low electrical resistivity for electricityA low opacity or high transparicyfor light.
Why is copper wire the best known conductor?
The best electrical conductor known is silver, not copper. Electrical resistivity of silver: 1,59.10-8 ohm.m Electrical resistivity of copper: 1,68.10-8 ohm.m A good electrical conductor has a very low electrical resistivity and a high electrical conductivity (the same principles for the thermal conductivity).
Does silver have very low resistivity?
yes, therefore it is a very good conductor of electricity.
Which is a good conductor?
a substance which has a low resistivity and allows a large amount of current to pass through

Is lead conductor?
Lead has high resistivity of current. So , lead is not conduct current. But lead has low resistivity of heat and it conduct heat..
Does a good conductor has a high resistance?
No, a good conductor has a low resistance.
Why are copper wires good?
Copper is good for use for electrical wiring because it has very low resistivity and is therefore an excellent conductor of electricity. It is not nearly as good a conductor as silver, but it is a lot less expensive.
Do wires that have high resistivity have high conductivity also?
No. In fact it is the opposite. Conductivity is the reciprocal of resistivity so a high resistivity means low conductivity. peace.
Does gold have a high or low resistance?
Gold has a low resistance, which means it is a good conductor of electricity. This property makes it useful in various electrical applications where low resistance is needed for efficient conduction of electricity.
Is metal low conductivity?
No, metals have high conductivity but has low resistivity.
Is copper has low resistivity or low resistance?
Copper is a material - although you can make objects from it. Resistivity is a property of materials. Resistance is a property of objects - it depends on the resistivity of the material the object is made of, the shape and size of the object, and also of where you connect to take your measurement. With all this in mind: Copper has a low resistivity. Copper objects tend to have low resistance compared to other objects of similar shape and size made of materials with a higher resistivity You can still achieve quite high resistances with a long enough piece of very thin copper wire.
