RESISTANCE COURSEWORK AIM: How does the length of wire affect the resistance of the wire? PREDICTION: I think that longer the wire will be the more resistance there would be. I thinak this because if the wire were longer it would be easier for more electrons to pass through. This is because there are many particles in the wire pushing back the electrons from entering the wire but in return the electrons would struggle through and cause high pressure and high resistance. If there is high resistance then this will show me that there are many electrons in the wire and there are many collisions taken place between the electrons and the atoms. I think my results will show me, as there is high resistance there would be high voltage to push the current through a wire. So the more resistance there is, the more voltage there is, which results to having less...
