    The conductance of the dielectric material separating the two conductors is represented by a shunt resistor between the signal wire and the return wire (siemens per unit length). This resistor in the model has a resistance of R shunt = 1 G o h m s {\displaystyle R_{\text{shunt}}={\frac {1}{G}}\,\mathrm {ohms} } .

  3. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

    The electrical resistance of a uniform conductor is given in terms of resistivity by: [40] = where ℓ is the length of the conductor in SI units of meters, a is the cross-sectional area (for a round wire a = πr 2 if r is radius) in units of meters squared, and ρ is the resistivity in units of ohm·meters.

    Also called chordal or DC resistance This corresponds to the usual definition of resistance; the voltage divided by the current R s t a t i c = V I. {\displaystyle R_{\mathrm {static} }={V \over I}.} It is the slope of the line (chord) from the origin through the point on the curve. Static resistance determines the power dissipation in an electrical component. Points on the current–voltage ...

  5. Quantum wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_wire

    One consequence of this quantization is that the classical formula for calculating the electrical resistance of a wire, R = ρ l A , {\displaystyle R=\rho {\frac {l}{A}},} is not valid for quantum wires (where ρ {\displaystyle \rho } is the material's resistivity , l {\displaystyle l} is the length, and A {\displaystyle A} is the cross ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistivity_and...

    The resistance of a given element is proportional to the length, but inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area. For example, if A = 1 m 2 , ℓ {\displaystyle \ell } = 1 m (forming a cube with perfectly conductive contacts on opposite faces), then the resistance of this element in ohms is numerically equal to the resistivity of the ...

  7. Carey Foster bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carey_Foster_bridge

    If the resistance of the wire per percentage is σ, then the resistance difference is the resistance of the length of bridge wire between ℓ 1 and ℓ 2: = To measure a low unknown resistance X, replace Y with a copper busbar that can be assumed to be of zero resistance.

  8. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    The total resistance of this parallel arrangement is expressed by the following equation: 1/R total = 1/R a + 1/R b + ... + 1/R n. R a, R b, and R n are the resistances of the renal, hepatic, and other arteries respectively. The total resistance is less than the resistance of any of the individual arteries. [3]

  9. Electrical length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_length

    In electrical engineering, electrical length is a dimensionless parameter equal to the physical length of an electrical conductor such as a cable or wire, divided by the wavelength of alternating current at a given frequency traveling through the conductor. [1] [2] [3] In other words, it is the length of the conductor measured in wavelengths.
