The relaxation time \tau is nearly independent of applied E field whereas it changes significantly with temperature T. First fact is (in part) responsible for Ohm’s law whereas the second fact leads to variation of ρ with temperature. Elaborate why?

Relaxation time decreases with increase in drift velocity. This increases the resistivity

\rho=\frac{m}{ne^2\tau }
