Nichrome wire. That's the stuff that toasters are made from. The resistance is pretty high, considering the diameter. 1 meter is at about the same guage as that listed below for copper is about 96 ohms.

Most of the time you are trying to use wire with the least resistance.

A meter of copper has a listed resistance of 0.024 ohms / meter. The wire is a 19 guage wire which makes it pretty thin.

===============

I'm not sure what you are asking. If want the resistance of something in terms of what would increase the resistance of the same material for both calculations then

Rule 1: It you decrease the wire diameter, you increase the resistance

Rule 2: If you increase the length of the wire, you increase the resistance.

Both rules assume you are using something like copper.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>A wire having </u><u>longer length and small cross sectional area</u><u> will have more resistance</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The length of wire affects the resistance of the wire. Taking a longer wire will have more resistance in it due to the longer path the electrons have to flow along to get from one end to the other. Similarly the larger the cross sectional area, the lower the resistance and vice versa because the electrons have a larger area to flow through.

A spring with spring-constant of 100 n/m is compressed 0.10 m. what is its maximum stored elastic potential energy
Ganezh [65]

Elastic potential energy stored in a spring is

(1/2) · (spring constant) · (stretch or compress)² .

PE = (1/2) · (100 N/m) · (0.1 m)²

PE = (50 N/m) · (0.01 m²)

PE = (50 · 0.01) (N · m / m²)

PE = 0.5 N · m

PE = 0.5 Joule

maxonik [38]

Answer: work must be done on the system  (Option A)

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics is the fundamental law of nature; it states that energy can be transferred from cold objects to hot objects only, if work is done on the system. If energy is added to the system then as a result the thermal energy would increase. Second law of thermodynamics is used to determine whether a process is spontaneous or not.  Moreover,the second law of thermodynamics is also used in refrigerators.
