Investigating What Factors Affect the Resistance of a Wire

Investigation of Factors Affecting Wire Resistance In this survey, we will investigate factors that affect wire resistance. The resistance is Ohm (Î). It occurs when electrons propagating along the wire collide with atoms of the wire. In order to select measurement factors, list factors that can be investigated and decide which is best for your survey.

In this survey we investigate the impedance of the wire against the current and identify the factors that affect wire resistance. There are five main factors that affect wire resistance. They are as follows: 1) wire material. 2) Wire length 3) Wire thickness (diameter). 4) Temperature of the wire 5) Voltage of the circuit However, my survey shows only two different factors that affect wire resistance.

Because other factors such as temperature are difficult to control and change, I decided to investigate the influence of wire thickness on resistance. There is not enough material to study how the material affects wire resistance. The effect of wire thickness on resistance is an effective experiment. The drawing can be drawn easily, a wide range of results can be obtained, and the result can be easily recorded. The thinner the wire, the less the path of electrons in the wire, so the current will not flow easily. This will increase the resistance because the energy does not diffuse too much. If the thickness of the wire is thick, more electrons can pass through the wire, so the resistance becomes smaller. Due to the large diameter of the wire, atoms from the metal can not collide or collide with as many electrons as possible.
