NEET Physics Resistance & Resistivity Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The resistivity of a material is independent of the dimensions of the conductor.
Reason (R): The resistivity is a material property that depends only on the type of material and its temperature.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The assertion is true because resistivity is a material property and does not depend on the conductor's dimensions. The reason correctly explains this by stating that resistivity depends only on the material type and temperature.
