Questions
Show variation of resistivity of copper as a function of temperature in a graph.
Show the variation of resistivity of copper with rise in temperature.
Solution
The relationship between the resistivity of copper and temperature is parabolic. The graph indicates that the resistivity of copper escalates with an increase in temperature. It is acknowledged that, regardless of the temperature, copper possesses a specific resistance.
