A piece of wire 100 m long has a diameter of 1 mm with a resistance of 2 ohms calculate the resistance of the same wire 2 km long with the same current?
If the wire length is 100m and the Diameter is 1mm calculate the Resistance of wire?
What is the total resistance of a 6-ohm resistor and a 12-ohm resistor in a parallel series?
In series like so ---6 ohms ---- 12 ohms --- , the total resistance is just 6 ohms + 12 ohms.assuming you mean in parallel like this:_|---6 ohms-----|-|~|-_|---12 ohms---|then the resistance of this can be calculated like so:1/6 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R (where R is the resistance of the circuit as a whole)2/12 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R3/12 ohms = 1/R1/4 ohms = 1/Rso R = 4 ohmsA few notes, if the resistors are in parallel the total resistance will always be less than or equal to the lowest resistance in parallel (i.e 6 ohms in parallel with 12 ohms will have resistance less than 6 ohms).Also if two resistances in parallel are the same, then the resistance is half of the resistance of both resistors (i.e. 1/2 ohms + 1/2 ohms = 1/R; 1 = 1/R, R=1 ohm which is half of 2 ohms).This process can be extended to 2 or more resistors in parallel.i.e if we had a 6 ohm, 6 ohm and 12 ohm resistor in parallel we could go1/6 ohms + 1/6 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R(1/6 ohms + 1/6 ohms) + 1/12 ohms = 1/R1/3 ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R4/12ohms + 1/12 ohms = 1/R5/12 ohms = 1/Rso R = 12/5 ohms or 2.4 ohms
What is the resistance of 70ohms and 30 ohms in a parallel circuit?
we have this 1/Re = (1/R1)+(1/R2) for calculating the effective resistance when resistances are connected in parallel so the answer would be Re =( 70*30) / (70+ 30) = 21 ohms
When a 1 ohm resistor and a 1 ohm resistor are connected in series what is their conbined resistance?
The combined resistance will be 2 Ohms.
How much is kilo ohms?
10.2 kilo ohms is the resistance necessary for 1 volt to induce a current of 98.04 micro amperes. Ohm's law: voltage equals current times resistance.
A lenght of cirular wire as a resistance of 1 ohms if its the diameter was double its resistance woul be.?
Its resistance would be half , 0.5 ohms is the answer.
A piece of wire 100 m long has a diameter of 1 mm with a resistance of 2 ohms calculate the resistance of the same wire 2 km long with the same current?
If the wire length is 100m and the Diameter is 1mm calculate the Resistance of wire?
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 will be the temperature of a resistive wire 8 ohms when a 1ampere passes through it at 1 volt?
Trick question. From Ohms law resistance equals voltage over current (R=V/A). To get 1 ampere at 1 volt the resistance must be 1 ohm!

There are three souces of resistance in a parallel circuit Two of them are rated at 20 ohm the other at 10 ohms What is the circuit's total resistance?
Three resistors in parallel: 20 ohms, 20 ohms, 10 ohms.1/ total resistance = (1/10) + (1/20) + (1/20) = (2/20) + (1/20) + (1/20) = 4/20 = 1/5 mho.Total resistance = 5 ohms
What size of wire do you run 300 meters to get 15 amp 110 volt at your gate?
Assuming the allowed volt drop is 5% or 5.5 volts, the wire resistance has to be 5.5/15 ohms or less, 0.367 ohms. The total length of wire is 600 metres so the resistance per metre is 0.00061 ohms. 1 sq-mm copper wire has a resistance of 0.0168 ohms/metre so you need wire with a size of 0.0168/0.00061 sq-mm, or 27.5 sq-mm. The next size up is 35 sq-mm in European cable size, or #2 AWG in America.
What gauge wire for 220Volt 50A underground run for 350 feet?
The voltage drop must be less than 5%, which is 11 volts. Thus the total resistance must equal 11/50 ohms or less, that is 11 volts divided by 50 amps. For a two-wire line the total wire length is 700 feet so the required resistance per foot is 11/(50*700) ohms per foot, or 0.000314 ohms per foot, equal to 0.001 ohms per metre for a single wire. A wire of 1 sq. mm. cross section has a resistance of 0.0168 ohms per metre, we need .001 ohms per metre, therefore the wire needs a cross section of more than 16.8 mm sq. In the USA that means the necessary wire size is 5 AWG.
There are three sources of resistence in a parallel circuit two of them are rated at 20 ohms the other 10 ohms what is the circuits total resistance?
The total resistance is 5 ohms. Scroll down to related links and look at "Parallel Resistance Calculator".
