ascertained of a metal wire and thus find the resistance of the wire by deriving the inverse of the gradient of the graph. Skill: Planning & Designing Theory: Resistance is a property of any object or substance to resist or oppose the flow of an electrical current. The quantity of resistance in an electric circuit determines the amount of current flowing in the circuit for any given voltage applied to the circuit. This is according to Ohm’s law. The unit of resistance is the Ohm which has the Greek letter

The purpose maybe to increase productivity‚ capability‚ effectiveness and the organization`s ability. Although change is often necessary and important for organizations and individuals in order to survive or to develop. They typically demonstrate resistance to change. Managers have to develop new ideas to overcome this challenge. (Robbins and Decenzo‚2008) The other business environment also involve during this process because of some forces or effects that have to be considered on for change

The main piece of equipment used in this lab is an aluminum block apparatus; the block has several holes drilled into it and embedded in them is a resistance heater‚ a thermistor‚ and a thermometer. In addition‚ a simple circuit is attached to the aluminum block with breadboarding for connection to the circuits built in the lab. The embedded resistance heater is used to heat the aluminum block. The heater is essentially a resistor that generates heat by the principle of Joule’s Law in which a current

ABSTRACT COOKSON‚ EDWARD JAMES. Development of the Metal Foam Electrical Resistance Heater. (Under the Direction of Dr. Albert Shih.) This thesis presents a novel concept using a radial heating element made from porous Fe-Cr-Al metal foam in an air heater. Electrical resistance heating has been used extensively to convert the electrical energy into thermal energy. An analytic heat transfer model is first developed to estimate dimensions of the heating element. Four prototype Fe-Cr-Al metal

Procedure Part I Wire Resistance: As wire length (cm) increases‚ the resistance (Ω) increases As wire area (cm2) increases‚ the resistance (Ω) decreases As wire resistivity (Ωcm) increases‚ the resistance (Ω) increases Procedure Part II: Ohm’s Law: Electricity‚ Magnets‚ and Circuits Ohm’s Law mA is milliamps‚ and 1000 milliamps equals one Ampere. Move the potential (volts) and resistance (ohms) sliders and observe the current (amps) As voltage increases‚ current increases. As resistance increases‚ current

Thermocouple comparison chart Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) are sensors that measure temperature by correlating the resistance of the RTD element with temperature. Most RTD elements consist of a length of fine coiled wire wrapped around a ceramic or glass core. The element is typically relatively fragile‚ so it is generally installed inside a sheath to protect it. The RTD element is constructed from a pure material‚ the resistance of which‚ at various temperatures

Theory: Thevenin theorem states that any linear two-terminal circuit can be replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a voltage source VTH in series with a resistance RTH where * VTH is the open-circuit voltage at the terminals‚ and * RTH is the equivalent resistance seen thru the terminals provided that all
