The properties of a wire that would create the least resistance to electron flow?

Generally a larger diameter copper wire would create the least resistance to electron flow. Copper is the most conductive and is widely used.


What happens to resistance of the wire if the wire is short?

Short wire has less resistance Long wire has more resistance Thick wire has less resistance Thin wire has more resistance


How does the thickness of the wire affect resistance?

A thicker wire has less resistance than a thinner wire.


How does the thickness of wire affect the resistance?

A thicker wire has less resistance than a thinner wire.


How does the resistance of a wire vary with its length?

resistance of wire increases with increases of length


When wire is thicker its resistance is?

When a wire is made thicker it's resistance decreases.


Why the value of armature resistance is low?

Because it is made of pure wire with nothing beyond its length and interaction with its neighboring wires to create resistance


How does length affect resistance of a wire?

In general, the longer the wire the greater the resistance. The only time that this is not so is when the wire is a superconductor, in which case the resistance is always zero.


When a wire is made thicker it resistance?

When a wire is made thicker it's resistance decreases.


Does a longer wire equal resistance?

Wire is not equal to resistance. If you have two pieces of wire with the same thickness, composition, and temperature, the longer piece has higher electrical resistance.


Is a wire thick with low electric resistance?

A wire that is thicker than another wire of the same material has less resistance


How does temperature affect resistance of a wire?

If you are asking if a hot wire has a greater resistance than a cold wire then the answer I would say is yes. Cold wires have always had less resistance than hot wires
