specific resistivity

Wat do u mean by specific resistivity?
 

It is the resistance of a cube of the material when measured between opposite sides.
 

I dont understand the meaning of the meaning above..Can someone elaborate ..
 

Hi
Specific resistance, or resistivity, is the resistance in ohms offered by a unit volume (the circular-mil- foot or the centimeter cube) of a substance to the flow of electric current. Resistivity is the reciprocal of conductivity. A substance that has a high resistivity will have a low conductivity, and vice versa. Thus, the specific resistance of a substance is the resistance of a unit volume of that substance.....

u can refer to
