Resistivity

Resistivity is a characteristic property of the conductor’s material that measures the extent to which the material opposes the flow of current. It is denoted by the Greek letter “rho”. Electrical resistivity, also known as specific resistance, depends on the nature of the material of the conductor and is unaffected by its dimensions.

Three identical light bulbs are connected to a battery as shown in the diagram below. Which adjustment/s could be made to the circuit that would increase the current being measured at X? Why? ... Decrease the resistance of two of the bulbs because it willI lead to decrease in equivalent resistance and will increase A the current as long as the voltage is held constant. В Increase the voltage of the battery because it will increase the current as long as the resistance is held constant. Remove one of the bulbs because it will reduce the equivalent resistance and will increase the current as long as the voltage is held constant. D) All of the above statements are true.
