Jawhari Thomas 11.5 Physics Course work Resistance of A Wire Aim: The aim of my investigation is to investigate how 1 attribute from the blow list affects the conductivity or resistance of a wire. Below is that list of the factors that I will be experimenting with. The factors that affect the resistance of a piece of wire: * Length of a wire * Diameter or thickness of a wire * Temperature of a wire * The type of metal of a wire Reviewing each of these factors, and also thinking about the investigation's outcome and how it was to be carried out, I decided that it would be in the best interest to continue the experiment with the length as the variable tested in this experiment. I had come to this decision, as it was easier and safer than the rest to carry out. Background Knowledge: The definition of resistance is the force that opposes...
