Yeah it was in ohm/meters. I Believe I have figured out where I had it screwed up.
It ended up being 9.42 meters of wire to keep under 10 amps, and resistance at 635deg C was 7620 ohms which ends up being 2 watts. The resistance and the temp coefficient were in the book. Thanks! I will...
Homework Statement
Build a heater that runs on 120vac no more than 10 amps. How many watts, 1mm nichrome wire, how long will it have to be at 20deg C. What will the resistance be at 1200deg F. What is the new power at the new resistance.
