G10 science By Freya Li Practical Investigation Resistance in Wire Aim: To investigate if the length of wire affects its resistance and find out how the resistance changes when the length of wire increases.

Practical Uses of Paralanguage & Non-verbal Communication. A year ago‚ I had an argument with my father for an hour. On a fine day after the air was cleared‚ my mother insightfully cross-analysed the argument for my better understanding of the situation.
