Best Answer

The resistance (ohms) of a conductor depends on a number of factors including the type of material, its thickness and the temperature.

There are charts that will tell you the resistance of different sizes of wires and the correction factor to use for non-standard temperatures.

Dose a 1000 watt 1 ohm stable amp work for my dual 2 ohm L7 12s?

yes but make sure the rms power for each is the same or close at 2 ohms and wire both subs in series-parallel


Can you run 4ohm resistor to make 4 ohms speakers 2 ohm?

Yes, you can safely use a 4 ohm amp with one 8 ohm speaker, but you will not achieve full power. The 4 ohm amp is designed to supply a certain voltage into a 4 ohm speaker. Supplying that same voltage to an 8 ohm speaker will result in half the power, or -3dB. For maximum power, use a 4 ohm speaker, or two 8 ohm speakers in parallel.


What is the Unit of capacitance in ohm and meter?

Capacitance is measured in Farads. "The unit... in ohm and meter" does not make sense.


How do you check if your ohm meters resistance is working properly?

Get some resistors of known values and check your meter with them.


How can Ohm law be used to calculate the electrical resistance of a piece of wire?

Ohm's law establishes the relationship between the current flowing in a conductor (represented by I), the potential difference across the two ends of the conductor (represented by P), and the resistance offered by the conductor (represented by R) through which current is flowing. Thus, general Ohm's law calculations based on only Ohm's law involve finding one of the three quantities.AnswerWhile you can always use the ratio of voltage to current to determine the resistance of the wire, there is no guarantee that the wire is obeying Ohm's Law!This is because Ohm's Law only applies when the ratio of voltage to current is constant for variations in voltage. For example, Ohm's Law doesn't apply to tungsten wire, because its resistance changes markedly for variations in voltage.There is a general misunderstanding of Ohm's Law that it applies to all materials. This is not true, as it only applies to 'linear' or 'ohmic' materials.

How do you test for a broken wire?

Use an Ohm meter, make sure the power is off first. A broken wire will read 0 (zero), or infinity.

How do you wire two 8 ohm speakers and keep a 8 ohm load?

in parallel No. Two 8 ohm 'speakers in parallel present a 4 ohm load.


If 2 4 ohm subs were wired in series 2 equal an 8 ohm setup n you wire that in Parallel with another 4 ohm would it put out a 2.6 ohm load?

Yes, just make sure your amp can run at 2 ohms and you're fine.


How do i Make a 8 ohm speaker 16 ohm?

You can't change the ohm load of a speaker. What you can do, is get a second 8 ohm speaker to run with that speakers in series and you will get a total ohm load of 16 ohms.To run them in series, simply wire the positive terminal of one speaker to the negative of the other speaker. One speaker will have an open positive terminal which you wire to the positive terminal on the amp, and same goes for the negative on the other speaker (to the amp's negative terminal of course).


What would happen to an eletrical current if the length of wire was decreased?

Lets say the resistance of copper wire is 1 ohm per meter and the wire is 10 meters long then resistance of wire is 10 ohms* If we then theoretically take the resistance of the wire at 10 ohm* and the voltage from the source at 10V then the current would be* I=V/R 10/10 or 1A If we shorten the wire to 9m then resistance of wire is 9 ohms so current if V does not change would be I=V/R 10/9 or 1.111111111111111111111A *This is without loss or other factors

What size amp do i need for two 10 inch kicker comp's?

You could go with a 600 watt 2 ch amp or a 300 watt mono block amp, depends on what OHM the subs are, if they are 8 ohm you could wire them down to 4 ohm or if they 4 ohm u could wire them to 2 ohm, i have a 600.1 Boss amp and subs are wired together at 2 ohm and they BANG.


Can you connect a bare wire from the cooktop to a green wire in a box?

Green and bare are both grounds and can be connected. To double check you could use an Ohm meter and make sure the green wire is connected to the cook-top chassis.
