MCQ
Superconductors have __________?
  • A
    Almost zero resistivity
  • B
    Very high resistivity
  • C
    Temperature-dependent resistivity
  • D
    Moderate value of resistivity

Answer

  1. Almost zero resistivity

Explanation:

Semiconductors are those which carry current with almost zero resistivity at a very low temperature (example: Lead at -272 - degree centigrade). So, they have a very huge amount of current flow through them.
