What exactly is the difference between resistivity of a material and the resistance of the material? Is there any difference between the two?
Asked by Tanvi | 09 May, 2013, 11:02: AM
Expert Answer
Yes, there is a difference between resistivity and resistance.
 
Resistivity of a conductor depends on the nature of its material and its temperature. It is independent of its dimensions, so it is a property of the material of the conductor.

Resistance of a conductor depends on the dimensions of the conductor, nature of its material and temperature. So, it is a property of the conductor.

The flow of electrons is opposite to the direction of the flow of current as electron is negatively charged . Then why current is defined as the flow of electrons through the conductor though current travels from positive to negative terminal.
