NEET Physics Resistance & Resistivity MCQ Question
Refer to the diagram shown above. If the resistance of the conductor is doubled, how does the resistivity of the material change?

It remains unchanged.
It doubles.
It halves.
It quadruples.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Resistivity is a property of the material and is not affected by changes in the dimensions or resistance of the conductor. It depends only on temperature and pressure as per NCERT context.
