How does voltage affect the resistance of a wire?

0

Voltage has no effect on the resistance of a wire. The resistance of a wire is fixed and depends on it’s length and diameter of the conductive surfaces. At very high frequencies (found in radio work) you can get a skin effect, where the signal travels on the outside of a wire, but this is the only thing I can think of where the resistance of the wire might be altered.

Basically voltage doesn’t affect the resistance. However, if the current raises the temperature of the wire that will increase the resistance.

Voltage=CurrentxResistence V=IR therefore R=V/I so if voltage is doubled so is the resistence (if the current remains constant)

i don’t think voltage affects Resistance. i thought resistance affects voltage.
