The formula I used is: R = p X l / a
R = resistance of conductor, in ohms
p = resistivity of conducting material
l = length of conductor, in feet
a = area of conductor, in circular mils
Turns out the formula is correct. The professor listed the wrong possibilities for l. I just received...
1. A 10 AWG Solid Copper wire has a resistance of 2 ohms. The wire length is?
2.Resistance = Resistivity x (Length/(V/L)) = Resistivity x (L^2/V).
3. 60.8 feet 60.8 m 6.1 m 200 inches are my possible answers
No matter what math I do. . .I can not reach any of the...
