Conductivity directly proportional to the surface area not resistivity.

How do you say resistivity is directly proportional to surface area?

Akshay said:   8 years ago
Resistivity is directly proportional to surface area.

Kabir said:   9 years ago
Here A is the cross section area not the surface area. Don't confuse.

R = L/A so, R is inversely proportional to the area.

R is directly proportional to the area of the surface.

In the case of resistor as power rating increases the size also increases inorder to facilitate higher area for power dissipation.

Sram said:   1 decade ago
R = L/A then Resistance is Indirectly proportional to surface area.

The size of the high power capacitors are larger.
