Investigating how the length of wire affects the resistance
Planning:
Risk Assessment:
* I will handle the power supply carefully.
* I am going to only use a maximum voltage of 2 volts.
* I will be careful when handling the mains equipment.
* I will make sure I have a clear space to work in and nothing on the floor around me.
In this investigation, I will set up a simple circuit to be able to read the voltage and current when the length of wire changes, so …showed first 75 words of 572 total…

…showed last 75 words of 572 total…because of the increase in energy, causing more collisions, resulting in an increase in resistance. I have chosen this alloy since temperature does not affect its resistance in a great way. Therefore when I am investigating its length and if at any time the wire heats up, the temperature will not affect its resistance.
I will do the test twice and take the average resistance from both to make sure I have an accurate result.
