The resistance of wires - dependence on the length andcross-section

Product No: P1372500

Principle

Working out the equation R = ? l?A takes some time. The relationships R ? l and R ? 1?A should first be recognized. We recommend that each group of students only carry out one of the experiments, and following this, gain the knowledge that R ? l?A in a joint evaluation.

Task

How do the length and cross-sectional area of a wire influence the value of its resistance?

Determine the relationship between the resistance of a wire and its length and cross-sectional area.
