"R_t=R_0(1+\\alpha \\triangle t)"
"R_t" is the resistance at a particular temperature.
Minus sign of temperature coefficient "(\\alpha)" means that the resistance will decrease with increase in temperature.
Resistance increases, in case of conductor, with increase in temperature and decreases, in case of insulator, due to increase in temperature.
It shows that carbon is an insulator.
"R_{50}=R_0(1+\\alpha \\times 50)"
"\\implies R_{50}=500(1-0.0048\\times 50)=380\\Omega"
