Hot resistance is your total resistance you can have with out exceeding your wattage limit
If you are asking if a hot wire has a greater resistance than a cold wire then the answer I would say is yes. Cold wires have always had less resistance than hot wires
The electrical resistance of a light bulb increases when it is turned on As a resistor, the tungsten light bulb has a positive resistance coefficient. This means that the electrical resistance goes up when the filament becomes hot. For example, a 100 watt light bulb operated at 120 volts - it does not matter if it is AC or DC for this calculation - will have a resistance of 144 ohms when hot and draw .833 ampere. When cold the filament typically has a resistance of only 10 ohms which increases as the filament heats up.
V = I x R so current I = 1/2 amp. I bet the bulb is rated at 60 W because Watts = Current x Voltage. Where V = voltage (volt) I = current (ampere) R = resistance (ohm) Your question isn't easy to answer. A lamp has two 'resistances': a 'cold' resistance, and a 'hot' resistance. Before it is energised, it is cold, so its resistance is low; when it is energised, it becomes very hot, and its resistance increases significantly. So, the question is whether your '240 ohms' is the cold resistance or the hot resistance. If it is the cold resistance, then a current of 0.5 A will flow through it for a fraction of a second, then its resistance will increase significantly, and the current will fall to a very much smaller value.
A: Because both item are connected is series. Any resistance connected in series will carry the same current no matter of the resistance value or the number of resistors. However for an incandescence lamp the value will change when turn on and change when it is hot, That is because lamps have different property then resistance when cold and hot
If the current through a pure metallic conductor causes the temperature of that conductor to rise, then its resistance will increase. A practical example of this is an electric lamp. The cold resistance of a lamp is very much lower than the hot resistance.
A conductor has low electrical resistance when hot and higher electrical resistance when cold. This is due to the increased thermal agitation of electrons in the conductor when it is hot, causing higher resistance compared to when it is cold.
Metals that make up typical resistors (and many other electrical components for that matter) tend to heat up as current flows through them. "COLD" resistance is the resistance before it is operating and "HOT" resistance is the resistance after some operating time has elapsed.
Wires get hot when electrical current flows through them, causing resistance in the wire. This resistance converts electrical energy into heat energy, making the wire hot.
the therminster will get hotter when the resistance is lowed

Metals heat up as electrical currents flow through them. Cold resistance is the metals resistance before it is operating. Hot resistance is the metals resistance after operating time has elapsed some.
A lamp has two resistances: a 'hot' resistance (its operating resistance) and its 'cold' resistance (its resistance when switched off), and the hot resistance is significantly higher than its cold resistance.You can calculate its 'hot' resistance from its rated power and its rated voltage (assuming that it is being supplied at its rated voltage), by manipulating the following equation, to make Rthe subject: P= V2/RYou will, though, have to measure its cold resistance.
The filament becomes hot when electricity passes through it, due to resistance in the wire. This resistance causes the filament to heat up and emit light in an incandescent bulb.
Current carrying wires become hot due to resistance in the wire. As electric current flows through the wire, resistance causes some of the electrical energy to be converted into heat. This heat energy accumulates over time, causing the wire to become hot.
Wires get hot because of the resistance they have to the flow of electricity. When electricity passes through a wire, some of the energy is converted into heat due to the resistance of the wire material. This heat can cause the wire to become hot, especially if a large amount of electricity is flowing through it.
A wire gets hot when an electric current flows through it, causing resistance in the wire which generates heat.
Actually the wire WILL get hot, but specifically HOW MUCH it gets hot depends on the current, and on the resistance of the wire.In most circuits, the resistance of the wire (and thus, the amount of heating) is insignificant, and can safely be ignored for most calculations.
