ISRO Electronics & Communication (ECE) 2016 - Question 32

All ISRO Electronics & Communication (ECE) papers | ISRO Electronics & Communication (ECE) 2016

Topic: Material Science

Pure Metals generally have

  • A. High Conductivity and Low temperature coefficient
  • B. High Conductivity and High temperature coefficient
  • C. Low Conductivity and zero temperature coefficient
  • D. Low Conductivity and High temperature coefficient

Answer: B. High Conductivity and High temperature coefficient

Explanation: Pure metals have high electrical conductivity due to a large number of free electrons. They also have a high positive temperature coefficient of resistance because increased temperature significantly increases lattice scattering.
