The resistance of metals rises with increasing temperature. The resistance semiconducting materials falls with increasing temperature.
Positive Temperature coefficient indicates that the resistance of material INCREASES with rise in the temperature. Resistance Temperature COefficient(RTC) is defined as increase in resistance per unit original resistance per unit rise in temperature. Temperature Coefficient of Resistance=R2-R1/(R1*(T2-T1)) Where: R2:Resistance at temperature T2 R1:Resistance at temperature T1 SO from formula it is clear that if resistance increases with temperature(T2-T1>0 and R2>R1) then Difference R2-R1 will be positive hence RTC will have positive value. But if with increase in temperature(T2-T1>0) resistance decreases(R2<R1) then difference R2-r1 will be negative hence RTC will be negative.
with increase temperature in metal, thermal energy causes atoms in metal to vibrate, in this excited state atoms interact with and scatter electrons, thus decreasing the mean free path, and hence the mobility of electrons to decreases and resistivity increase(Resistivity = 1 / Conductivity )so conductivity of metal decrease as increasing in temperature
"Temperature coefficient" means, how does a certain physical quantity vary, depending on the temperature. In this case, the physical quantity in question is probably the electrical resistance, or the electrical resistivity.
The temperature coefficient of a thermistor is a measure of how much its resistance changes with temperature. It is typically expressed in units of percent resistance change per degree Celsius. Negative temperature coefficients mean the resistance decreases as temperature increases, while positive coefficients mean the resistance increases with temperature.
The slope of a resistance vs. temperature curve gives the temperature coefficient of resistance, which quantifies how much the resistance of a material changes with temperature. Positive values indicate the resistance increases with temperature (e.g., in most metals), while negative values indicate the resistance decreases with temperature (e.g., in semiconductors).
The metal with the lowest temperature coefficient is Platinum. Its temperature coefficient of resistance is among the lowest of all metals, making it a preferred choice for applications where stability in resistance over a wide temperature range is required.

The resistance of a transformer primarily refers to the resistance of its windings, which is typically fixed and does not change significantly under normal operating conditions. However, the effective impedance seen by the primary or secondary side can vary based on load conditions and frequency. Additionally, factors such as temperature changes can affect the resistance of the windings, as resistance generally increases with temperature. Overall, while the intrinsic resistance remains constant, the apparent resistance can vary due to external factors.
In hot metals the kinetic energy of electrons becomes higher and they move randomly so their movement in one direction becomes decreased so the conductance becomes decreased.

Well, there's typically two types of materials-Those with positive temperature coefficient and those with negative temperature coefficient. Positive temperature coefficient are those whose resistance increases as temperature increases. Negative temperature cofficient are those whose resistance decrease when the temperature increase. There are however some alloys such as Manganin& Constantan whose resistance is not affected by temperature

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.
In general, pure metal conductors increase in resistance as their temperature increases. This is not necessarily true for alloys, as some alloys are manufactured to have an approximately constant resistance over a wide range of temperatures.

As temperature affects resistivity, the resistance of a conductor may change if its temperature is allowed to increase. For pure metal conductors, the resistance generally increases as the temperature increases.Ohm's Law ('the current flowing along a conductor, at constant temperature, is directly proportional to the potential difference across that conductor') only applies when the resistance of the conductor is constant so, when verifying Ohm's Law, the temperature must be kept constant, in order to keep the resistance constant.It should be pointed out that the ratio of voltage (U) to current (R) is called resistance (R), and the resistance of a circuit can be found from the equation, R = U/I whether Ohm's Law applies or not -but Ohm's Law itself only applies when the ratio is constant over a range of voltage variation.
