The electrical resistance of aire is directly proportional to its length. If a 45-foot long wire has a resistance of 9 ohm(s), find the resistance of a 75-foot long wire. What is the resistance? ohms
The resistance is proportional to the length. You know that 45/9=5 So the ratio (proportionality) is 5. So, for a 75 ft wire, the resistance is 75/5 = 15 ohms
