What is the opposition of current flow measured in?

The opposition of current flow is measured in ohms. For DC circuits it is resistance and for AC circuits it is impedance.


Short definition of impedance in connection with ac?

Impedance in an AC circuit is like resistance. In fact, impedance is measured in ohms, just like resistance. Impedance takes into account the fact that current and voltage are often not in phase with each other due to capacitive and inductive reactance.


What is analog audio impedance?

To get all the audio voltage from a source to a target without loss you need voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is at least ten times higher then the output impedance.An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance.An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.

What is input and output impedance?

To get all the voltage from a source to a target without loss you need voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is more than ten times higher then the output impedance.An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance.An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.

What is impedance and its unit of measurement?

Impedance is measured in Ohms defined as total resistance to current (Amps) flow


How is voltage measured?

Use a voltmeter with a high input impedance and measure at the source the voltage.


How do you calculate magnetizing impedance of the induction motor?

The magnetizing impedance of an induction motor can be calculated by performing no-load tests. During these tests, the motor is operated without any mechanical load, and its input power and current are measured. By applying the equivalent circuit model of the motor, which includes the magnetizing impedance, the impedance value can be calculated using the measured data.


How do you measure speaker impedance?

The real impedance is the resistance in ohms more 20%. A coil resistance of 6,7 ohms X 1.20 = an impedance of 8.04 ohms. If the voice-coil had exactly 8 ohms, the impedance would be 9.6 ohms and the sound would be unclear, tending to more basses.

Resistance is measured in what?

Electrical resistance (and impedance) is measured in ohms(Ω).


What is impedance in speakers and can it be measured in watts?

Impedance in electricity is described as an opposing force to electron flow. It consists of a combination of resistance, capacitance, and inductance. This forms the actual "resistance" to electron flow in a circuit versus "pure resistance"such as a resistor added in a circuit to slow electron flow. Impedance is more prevalent in AC circuits versus DC circuits as it reacts to AC current flow much more than DC current. Current flow in a speaker circuit is considered AC so impedance is more meaningful in a speaker setup. Impedance can be measured or calculated based upon current flow so it can be converted to watts using the formula Watts = amps times voltage.AnswerImpedance is the vector sum of resistance and reactance, and is measured in ohms. No, it cannot be measured in watts, which the unit for power.


What are input impedance in a load cell?

The resistance measured across the excitation terminals of the load cell, when the output terminals are open.


What is inpedance?

In electrical engineering, impedance measures how easily a circuit conducts current when a voltage runs through it. Measured in ohms, impedance is a way of telling you how much of the voltage introduced at one end will really make it to the other end.


Which is better high input impedance or low input impedance and why?

That depends on the output impedance. In electronic we use voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is more than ten times higher then the output impedance. An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance. An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.
