--- Quote ---In your example you can take a 58cm copper wire with a section of 0.01mm2 that will have a resistance of about 1Ohm and connect the wire across the terminals of a 1V battery.

Only if we wanted to to plonk a dead cat on the table. Just take it that this is a normal wire with a resistance that is negligible compared to everything else. Like normal wires.

Yes it is a normal copper wire with 0.01mm2 cross section and a length of 58cm.
You can call this a wire or a 1Ohm resistor as both description will be correct since a wire and a resistor are the exact same thing.
All you have is a voltage source 1V and this wire or if you want call it a resistor.

No it isn't. It's 2.5mm2 of 10mm length. So there. And if that ain't good enough, it's 10V batteries and 10R resistors. The question doesn't change.
Since you're determined to keep steering past this question I think we can safely assume you can't answer it.

Do you get the point that wire and resistors are one and the same thing ?
The diagram showed a 1V voltage source and a 1Ohm resistor and nothing else.
So if I take a 1V constant voltage supply and 1Ohm wire/resistor witch I just decided will be a copper wire with cross section of 0.01mm2 and 58cm long then it conforms perfectly with the schematic.
And if you want 10V and 10Ohm I can just use 5.8m of this same 0.01mm2 wire that I got on sale :)
All I try to show you is that there is no distinction between a wire and a resistor.

How's it going guys? Are you making good progress?
Someone remind me, is this the discussion on the current in conductors, or the one on wind powered cars traveling faster than the wind?
Has anyone talked about leverage on the electrons yet? It's all about the leverage.

What on Earth does the debt-to-equity ratio have to do with electrons? Can you buy those too? I'll have a dozen, please; one never has enough surplus electrons.
Mmmm, surplus electrons... :-*
