What affects the resistance of an electric conductor?

The material from which the conductor is made, the length of the conductor, the diameter of the conductor and the temperature of the conductor are all things that impact its resistance.


Does a good conductor has a high resistance?

No, a good conductor has a low resistance.


What is the term used for the hindrance a conductor creates to the flow of electric current?

Resistance is the hindrance a conductor creates to the flow of electric current


How does resistance vary with the length of a conductor?

Resistance in a conductor increases as the length of the conductor increases. This is because a longer conductor provides more material for electrons to collide with, resulting in more resistance to the flow of electric current.


If pressure is constant and current increases the resistance?

I assume you meant pressure to voltage. The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to the temperature of the conductor. If the temperature of the conductor increases due to increased current, then the resistance tend to increase too.


What is encountered by the electric current while flowing through a conductor?

The electric current encounters resistance while flowing through a conductor, which results in the conversion of electrical energy into heat. This resistance is impacted by factors like the material of the conductor and its dimensions.


What is a electric currant?

There is no such thing as an "electric currant." Maybe you meant "electric current," which is the flow of electric charge through a conductor.


What is the path that an electrical current travels?

electric current


Why does Resistance decrease in thin wire?

Area of cross section: Resistance R is inversely proportional to the area of cross section ( A) of the conductor. This means R will decrease with increase in the area of conductor and vice versa. More area of conductor facilitates the flow of electric current through more area and thus decreases the resistance. This is the cause that thick copper wire creates less resistance to the electric current.


Is chalk a good conductor of eletricity?

No, chalk is not a good conductor of electricity because it is a poor conductor of heat and electricity due to its high resistance to the flow of electric current.


What is a material that will carry an electric current called?

A material that will carry an electric current is called a conductor. Conductor materials have high electrical conductivity, allowing the flow of electric charges with minimal resistance. Examples of conductors include metals such as copper, aluminum, and silver.


Is polythene good conductor?

No, polythene is considered an insulator and not a good conductor of electricity. It has high resistance which limits the flow of electric current through it.
