resistance:  it is the property of a conductor by which it oppose the flow of charge or current through the conductor .R=V/I  hence resistance of conductor is defined as the ratio of the potential difference applied across the conductor to the current. 


S.I unit:  ohm 


hence resistance of a  is conductor is said to be 1 ohm if 1 ampere current flowing through it after applying 1 volt potential difference. 


dimension formula: [ML^2T^-3A^-2]


 specific resistance or resistivity:  the resistance of a conductor is directly proportional length (l)  of conductor and inversely proportional to its cross sectional area (a). 


 R{l/a  or R=pl/a


where p is constant called resistity or specific resistance of the material of the conductor. 
it's value depend on the nature of the material of the conductor and physical condition like temp., & pressure. 
it doesn't depend upon shape & size of the conductor 
If l=1, A=1 then p=R.
the resistivity of the material of the conductor is equal to its the resistance offered by its unit length and having unit cross sectional area  
Conductor: those substance which have low resistivity are conductor like metals
non conductor: those substance which have high resistivity are non conductor like insulator such as mica  glass, bakelite.etc
semiconductor:  those substance which have resistivity in between conductor and insulator are called semiconductor. like carbon ,germanium, silicon etc
conductance(G):  the reciprocal of the resistance of the conductor is called conductance .
G=1/R
Electrical conductivity: the reciprocal of resistivity of a material is called electrical conductivity .it is denoted by sigma.
where p is resistivity.
s.i unit: ohm^-1 metre^-1 or mho metre^-1or sieman metre^-1
Dimension formula [M^-1L^-3T^3A^2]







S.I unit Ohm metreDimension: [ML^3T^-3A^-2]

S.I unit ohm^-1 or mho or siemen(s). Dimension formula: [M^-1L^-2T^3A^2]

 sigma=1/p

Failures of ohm's law

Failures of ohm's law ohm's law is not a fundamental law .in many cases  it fails.  Ohmic conductor : The conductor which obey ohm's law are called ohmic conductor. eg. pure metals, cuso4 solution etc for ohmic conductor; 1.V-I graph is straight line and passes through origin. 2. the direction of current is reverse, if P. D(V)  is reverse. but magnitude of I remains same. 3. for a potential difference,  there is only one value of current. Non ohmic conductor : the conductors which do not obey ohm's law are called non ohmic conductors eg. junction diode, water voltmeter, vaccum tube etc for non ohmic conductor 1.graph B/w V&I is not straight line  i. e V/I not equal to constant. 2.if V-I graph is a straight line it does not passes through the origin. eg. water voltmeter. 3. current can have more value for a given potential difference i. e resistance does not have a constant value. 4.the relation B/w V-I depends upon the sign of V i. e cur...

page 4 XII PHYSICS UNIT 2

page 4 relation between current & drift velocity consider a conductor of length(l)  &  cross sectional area (a)   volume of the conductor =A×l  if n be the number of free electron per unit volume then total number of free electrons=n×A×l total charge in the conductor q= n×A×l×e (due to all free electron)  now time taken by electron to cross the length (l) of the conductor    t=l/vd      where vd is drift velocity of the electrons I =q/t or I = (n×e×A×l×vd) /l or I =n×e×A×vd since n, A, e are constant. so I { vd  hence current flowing in a conductor is directly proportional to the drift velocity.  Deduction of ohm's law the drift velocity is given by     vd =(e×E×T) /m  =(e×v×T) /ml also I= n×e×A×vd  =( n×e×A×e×v×T) /ml or v/l= (m×l) /n×e^2×T×A at fixed temp. m, l, n, e, T & A are all constant for a given conductor  therefore v/l =constant=R, this is ohm's...

XII CLASS PHYSICS Unit 2 TOPIC PAGE 3

page 3 Drift velocity(vd) :every metal has a larger no of free electrons. they move randomly inside the metal about velocities 10^5m/s. however these velocities are destributed randomly in all directions.  there is no net direction of motion .so their average  velocity is zero. vectors(u1, u2, u3........ .. un)  are the randomly velocities of n free electrons then average velocities are     vectors(u1+u2+u3+... . +un) /n=o hence their is no net flow of electron in any direction & no current flow. when  a potential difference is applied across a conductor an electric field is set up at every point inside the conductor andeach electron experiences a force in the opposite direction of electric field and move with an acceleration. as the electrons accelerates they collide with a very small velocity(10^-5)   oppositeto electric field is called drift velocity hence drift velocity is the average velocity of the free electrons with which th...
