The figure shows a graph of the resistance of a wire as a function of its length. What physical quantities does the slope of this graph represent?


• the cross-sectional area of the wire

• the resistivity of the material of which the wire is made

• the resistivity of the material divided by the cross-sectional area of the wire

• the reciprocal of the resistivity of the material

• the product of the resistivity and the cross-sectional area of the wire
