Electrical resistivity and conductivity 1 Ω⋅m. Electrical conductivity or specific conductance is the reciprocal of electrical resistivity, and measures a material's ability to conduct an electric current. It is commonly represented by the Greek letter σ (sigma), but κ (kappa) (especially in electrical engineering) or γ (gamma) are also occasionally used. Its SI unit is siemens per metre (S/m). In an ideal case, cross-section and physical composition of the examined material are uniform across the sample, and the electric field and current density are both parallel and constant everywhere. Many resistors and conductors do in fact have a uniform cross section with a uniform
Jim Measures Jim Measures James Measures (born 14 April 1939), also known by the nickname of "Jim", is an English former professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1950s and 1960s. He played at representative level for Great Britain, and at club level for St Helens, Widnes and the Rochdale Hornets, as a , i.e. number 11 or 12, during the era of contested scrums. Measures was born in St. Helens, Lancashire, England. Jim Measures won caps for Great Britain while at Widnes in 1963 against Australia (2 matches).
