What is the difference between these 2 quantities?
from my textbook defines resistivity as a specific property of a material
and is = E/J
where the resistance is the resistivity over a unit length and area. So I suppose the resistance is a measures of resistivity over a volume
Resistance = pL/A
thats what i think but i am not sure if i am right
PS i am sorry if this is a noob question, but my answer differed by one provided on yahoo answers, but then again yahoo answers is only yahoo answers( i got worried)
