What is the resistivity of 1 ohm?
GeneralClass 12AllAnswered 27 Mar 2026
Answer
This uestion contains a misconception. Resistivity is not measured in ohms—it's measured in ohm-meters (Ω·m). One ohm (1 Ω) is a unit of resistance, not resistivity.
However, if you're asking about a material with 1 ohm of resistance:
- A 1-meter cube of material with 1 Ω resistance has resistivity of 1 Ω·m
- The actual resistivity depends on the object's dimensions using ρ = RA/L
