MCQ
Identify the factor which does not depend on the resistance of a conductor.
  • A
    Nature of material
  • B
    Area of cross-section
  • C
    Length
  • D
    Viscosity

Answer

  1. Viscosity

Explanation:

The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length, inversely proportional to the area of cross-section, and nature of the material. The resistance of the conductor does not depend on viscosity.
