To calculate resistance and voltage in a multi-material cable consisting of copper, tin, and lead wires, one must first determine the resistance of each wire using the resistivity formula. If the wires are connected in parallel, the combined resistance can be calculated accordingly. The total voltage at the other end of the cable is influenced by the current flowing through the circuit, which is determined by the resistance and the applied voltage of 12V.

Alfcon said:Hi, if I have 3 naded wires copper, Tin and Lead wrapped into one cable and I run 12v through it how do I work out the amount of resistance I get and the total voltage at the other end?
