The resistance of a wire Planning:- Introduction: To investigate the resistance of a wire at different lengths to see whether or not a longer wire has a larger resistance than a shorter wire. Apparatus: Wire Voltmeter Ammeter Battery 2 crocodile clips Metre rule Variable resistor Diagram: Variables: Length Thickness Resistance Material The material and diameter of the wire needs to be kept constant to keep the test fair as we are investigating resistance.

Section 1 WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE WIRES? INTRODUCTION Electricity is usually invisible. Except for lightning and sparks‚ you never see it in daily life. However‚ light bulbs and a magnetic compass can show you when something electrical is happening. By observing their behavior and making a few assumptions‚ you can begin forming ideas about electricity. This type of thinking is called “building a model”. INVESTIGATION ONE: WHAT IS NEEDED TO LIGHT A BULB? 1.1 Activity: Lighting bulbs in a loop

Factors Affecting The Resistance Of Wire Aim: To investigate the factors that affect the resistance in a conductor. The main factors that affect the resistance in a conductor are: · Length · Temperature · Cross sectional area · Material · Magnetism The factor that we are going to change is the cross sectional area. Hypothesis: I think that the higher the cross sectional area‚ the lower the resistance in the conductor will be. This is because the Resistance in a metal conductor happens
