Calculate Wire Resistance





Formula

To calculate the wire resistance:

\[ R = \rho \cdot \frac{L}{A} \]

Where:

Wire Resistance Definition

Wire resistance is defined as the total resistance to electrical flow moving through a wire.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ R = 1.68 \times 10^{-8} \cdot \frac{100}{1 \times 10^{-6}} = 1.68 \times 10^{-2} = 0.0168 \text{ Ohms} \]

The wire resistance is 0.0168 Ohms.
