Metals heat up as electrical currents flow through them. Cold resistance is the metals resistance before it is operating. Hot resistance is the metals resistance after operating time has elapsed some.

Cold resistance refers to a material's ability to withstand low temperatures without damage or degradation. Hot resistance, on the other hand, is a material's ability to withstand high temperatures without damage or structural changes. Both properties are important considerations in choosing materials for various applications.

What is different hot and cold conductor?

A conductor has low electrical resistance when hot and higher electrical resistance when cold. This is due to the increased thermal agitation of electrons in the conductor when it is hot, causing higher resistance compared to when it is cold.


What do you mean by 'cold resistance' and 'hot resistance'?

Metals that make up typical resistors (and many other electrical components for that matter) tend to heat up as current flows through them. "COLD" resistance is the resistance before it is operating and "HOT" resistance is the resistance after some operating time has elapsed.


How does temperature affect resistance of a wire?

If you are asking if a hot wire has a greater resistance than a cold wire then the answer I would say is yes. Cold wires have always had less resistance than hot wires


What is the resistance of a fuse bulb?

A lamp has two resistances: a 'hot' resistance (its operating resistance) and its 'cold' resistance (its resistance when switched off), and the hot resistance is significantly higher than its cold resistance.You can calculate its 'hot' resistance from its rated power and its rated voltage (assuming that it is being supplied at its rated voltage), by manipulating the following equation, to make Rthe subject: P= V2/RYou will, though, have to measure its cold resistance.


Cold and heat fatigue resistance?

Cold and heat fatigue is one of the main forms of failure of hot work dies, and the molds for supporting pictures should have high resistance to cold and heat fatigue.


What has more resistance hot air or cold air?

Cold air is more dense, thus is gives more resistance. Notice how you land when you're flying. In the winter, it's usually a smooth gradual landing. In summer, you hit the runway with much more force.


Can hot air or cold air effect how far a person hits a golf ball?

Yes, in hot air the air is a lot thinner so there is less resistance compared to cold air which is a lot denser so more resistance.


How do you check the temperature sensor on a 1989 Ford F150?

The sensor can be checked for resistance with an ohm meter. The sensor can be checked while cold then hot for resistance change.


What is Hot Resistance?

Hot resistance is your total resistance you can have with out exceeding your wattage limit


What is meant by cold resistance of filament lamp?

It means exactly what it sounds like. The resistance of an incandescent bulb's filament depends on its temperature. A filament has a positive temperature coefficient, which means that its resistance increases as its temperature increases. A typical 40 watt bulb (120 volts) has a cold resistance of about 28 ohms, but its hot, operating resistance is about 360 ohms. If the cold resistance were constant, the bulb would dissipate 379 watts. In fact, cold turn on is the most stressful time for a bulb.


How much current is needed to light a bulb with 180 ohms of resistance using 120 volt power source?

V = I x R so current I = 1/2 amp. I bet the bulb is rated at 60 W because Watts = Current x Voltage. Where V = voltage (volt) I = current (ampere) R = resistance (ohm) Your question isn't easy to answer. A lamp has two 'resistances': a 'cold' resistance, and a 'hot' resistance. Before it is energised, it is cold, so its resistance is low; when it is energised, it becomes very hot, and its resistance increases significantly. So, the question is whether your '240 ohms' is the cold resistance or the hot resistance. If it is the cold resistance, then a current of 0.5 A will flow through it for a fraction of a second, then its resistance will increase significantly, and the current will fall to a very much smaller value.


Does a football travel faster in hot or cold?

A football will typically travel faster in hot weather compared to cold weather. This is because the air molecules are more spread out in hot weather, reducing air resistance and allowing the ball to move more quickly through the air.
