Resistivity of material does not depend on length, thickness and shape of the material.

Electrical resistivity of a given metallic wire depends on number density of free electrons in the conductor, which is the nature of the material.

p; alpha frac1n

where, n = number of free electrons per unit volume.

Electrical resistivity also depends on the temperature of conductor.
