What is super conductivity? |
|
Answer» 1. The resistivity of a metal decreases as the temperature decreases. 2. In case of some metals and metal alloys, the resistivity suddenly drops to zero at a particular temperature (Tc), this temperature is called critical temperature. 3. Super conductivity is the phenomenon where resistivity of a material becomes zero at particular temperature. 4. For example, mercury loses its resistance completely to zero at 4.2 K. |
