Q

Resistance varies with temperature

A

As temperature rises, more charge carriers are released in the conductor, increasing the NUMBER DENSITY of charge carriers

Lattice ions vibrate with larger amplitude and this reduce the average drift speed of charge carriers

The effect of increase in number density pf charge carriers outweighs the effect of reduced drift speed.
