Why is copper wire not used in potentiometer?

Copper is not used in potentiometer due to the following reasons: 1)Low resistivity 2) High Temperature Coefficient of resistance


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 alumina become conductive at high temperatures?

Alumina is a good electrical insulator; at high temperatures the resistivity is smaller than the resistivity at room temperature.

Is resistivity of a good conductor high or low?

It is Low


What property does the metal tungsten on an incandescent light bulb have?

it have high resistivity as well as high melting point. So due to high resistivity collision of moving electrons are taken place. It emits radiation which is appear as light.


Is metal low conductivity?

No, metals have high conductivity but has low resistivity.


Is it true that a material with high resistivity is a good conductor?

No. It is not true. It is false.


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.
