That depends on the what substance the wire is made from. Wires made from metals, such as iron, copper, gold, are good conductors. Wires made from aluminum would not be as good of a conductor.

When the voltage across the ends of a piece of wire is doubled what effect does this have on the current in the wire?

current doublesAnswerIt depends on whether the wire is ohmic or non-ohmic. If it is ohmic, then the current will also double. If, like tungsten, it is non-ohmic, then it depends.... because doubling the voltage will cause its resistance to increase.Ohmic materials obey Ohm's Law, whereas non-ohmic materials do not.

What is the ohmic value of two wire rtd?

The ohmic value of a two-wire RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) typically ranges from 100 ohms to 1000 ohms at 0°C. This value increases with temperature due to the positive temperature coefficient of the RTD material.
