Which factors affect the resistance of a material? Check all that apply.

length
current
thickness
temperature
voltage

Respuesta :

length, thickness, temp is the correct answer on the assignment

Answer: Length, thickness and temperature.

Explanation:

The ability of a material to resist flow of electrons through it is known as resistance. It depends on the length, thickness and temperature of the material. It is basically a opposing force against the current.

[tex]R = \frac{\rho l}{A}[/tex]

Where, ρ is the resistivity, l is the length and A is the area of the cross-section.

With increase in length and decrease in cross-sectional area, the resistance increases. Also, with increase in temperature the collisions increases which restricts the flow of electrons causing resistance.

Current depends on the resistance. With increase in resistance, current decreases.
