The resistance of a wire is the length divided by the cross-section area and the conductivity of the material.

So for small resistance you need a wire with short length, large cross-section area (diameter) and a material with high conductivity like copper.

What is insulation resistance in capacitor?

ideally there will not be any resistance to the capacitor,so at this condition it should not not discharge the stored energy. but practically small resistance will be there in the capacitor so the energy stored by the capacitor will be discharged through resistance.

When measuring a large current flow should you use a shunt with zero resistance?

It is not a shunt with zero resistance. It is very small, but it is not zero. The large current develops a small voltage across the small resistance. Measuring that small voltage gives you a proportional measurement of the current.


What is resistance of air passages?

Resistance of air passages refers to the degree to which air flow is impeded as it travels through the respiratory system. This resistance is influenced by factors such as the size of the airways, the presence of inflammation or obstruction, and the elasticity of the lung tissue. High resistance can make breathing difficult and may be a characteristic of conditions like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.


IS Emitter base resistance greater than emitter collector resistance in transistor?

It depends on whether the transistor is in the active region or not. Usually, the transistor would be in the active region when we are asking this question. if we look at the data sheet for the popular 2N3905 transistor, available at http://www.fairchildsemi.com/ds/2N/2N3905.pdf, we see that if V collector-emitter is 10 V, the collector current is 1 mA, and the small signal frequency is 1 kHz, the typical small signal signal input impedance (which is nearly the same as small signal base-emitter resistance) is about 5,000 ohms. Under the same conditions, the typical output admittance, (which is nearly the same as the small signal collector-emitter resistance) is about 30 microsiemens. Calculate 1/0.000030 to find that this is the same as about 33,000 ohms, so in this case the collector-emitter small signal resistance is greater than the base-emitter small signal resistance. You might be able to find an operating point where the reverse is true.

What is self resistance?

Self resistance is exactly what it sounds like it would be. It is the resistance that you make happen on your own.


Do batteries have resistance?

Yes they do have a resistance. Even though a battery is a voltage source it has some thevenin resistance. Every lead plate and cell of sulfuric acid, will have a small resistance. The thevenin resistance is equivalent or sum of all those resistances.
