Nichrome wire of cross-sectional radius 0.800 mm is to be used in winding a heating coil. If the coil must carry a current of 8.00 A when a voltage of 2.10 ✕ 102 V is applied across its ends, find the following. (a) the required resistance of the coil _______Ω (b) the length of wire you must use to wind the coil _______m
Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.
