Answer: D
Explanation: Resistance of current in a wire is directly proportional to the length of the wire and inversely proportional to the cross - sectional area of the wire. That is,
R = (rho × L)/A
Where
L = length of the wire
A = cross sectional Area of the wire
rho = resistivity = proportionality constant which depends on the quality of the wire.
Therefore, Resistance and resistivity are related by a:
proportionality constant dependent on the identity of the material.
