Interactive tool with 3 panels. Panel 1 - 'Resistance vs Temperature': Plot ρ vs T. Normal metal: ρ decreases linearly, levels off near 0K (residual resistance). Superconductor: ρ drops linearly then ABRUPTLY to zero at Tc (critical temperature). Selectable materials: Hg (Tc=4.2K), Nb (9.3K), NbTi (
