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
What are factors that affect resistance of electricity?
Temperature, thickness, length and type of 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.
Would thick wires tend to have the least amount of eletrical resistance?
Yes, the resistance is directly proportional to length of wire and inversely proportional Area, hence when Length of wire increases the resistance also increases and when Area increases the resistance decreases. This means a thick wire has least amount of Electrical resistance.
What is the resistance of metal wire?
the resistance is depends on the type of the metal and ith length
What type of resistance would exist for electrical timers?
none the resistance is in the wire not the timer
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.
A wire replaced with the same type and size but twice as long as the original the resistance is what?
The resistance is doubled.
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
What is platinum thermometer?
It is a thermometer using the platinum wire as sensor (resistance thermometer); the resistance of the wire is proportional to the temperature. This type of thermometer is used under 600 0C.
What are factors that affect resistance of electricity?
Temperature, thickness, length and type of wire.
Does the type of wire make a difference to the circuit?
yes. If you use wire of certain resistance first the get the result and if u use other wire which is of more or less resistance then the voltage drop in the wire changes so the output also changes. Yes it does, but the difference may be inconsequential. The specific circuit in question and type of wire should be included for a specific answer.
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
