1. What its made of. Metals are good conductors so have lower resistance than an insulator of the same
dimensions.
2. Length the longer, the greater resistance.
3. Area of cross section the larger the lower.
4. Temperature (metals: higher temperature = higher resistance because the vibration of the metal lattice
impedes the drift of the electrons, semiconductors: like thermistors , resistance decreases with
temperature)
power is the rate of doing work. It is equivalent to an amount of energy consumed per unit
time. In the SI system, the unit of power is the joule per second (J/s), known as the watt in
honour of James Watt, the eighteenth-century developer of the steam engine.
