Specific resistance

Specific resistance

Specific Resistance is the resistance offered by a unit cube (1 cubic cm or 1 cubic meter )such that the current enter and leaves it from its opposite faces.

Or Specific resistance is the inherent property of a material.It is defined as the resistance offered by unit length and unit cross section of that material when a known

voltage is applied at its end.Mathematically P = RA/l where P is specific resistance.

  • Resistivity - Specific electrical resistance
  • Specific airway resistance (R/ FRC)
  • Cost of transport - Specific resistance due to friction for a mechanism transporting mass
