What is the resistance of an ideal ammeter ?
The quantity of charge flowing past a point multiplied by time is current.
Find the equivalent resistance across the two ends $A$ and $B$ of this circuit.
$(a)$ Resistivity of iron is $10 \times 10^{-8} \;\Omega m$ and of mercury is $94 \times 10^{-8}\; \Omega m$. Which among iron and mercury is a better conductor ? Give reason.
$(b)$ Resistivity of a material $A$ is in the range of $10^{10}-10^{\text {14 }} \;\Omega m$ while that of $B$ is in the range of $10^{-6}-10^{-8} \;\Omega$ m. Which of the two will behave as an insulator and why?
