THE EFFECT OF RESISTANCE ON CURRENT
The quantity of electric current that flows through a circuit will change according to theresistance. The bigger the resistance, the smaller the electric current the flows through a circuit.
AIM:
To study the relationship between resistance and current.
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
What is the effect of change resistance on current?
HYPOTHESIS
: E lectrical current will increase when resistance decrease.
E1C11
VARIABLE:
a) T hat is kept constant: voltage/ type of wire/ thickness of wire . b
) That is manipulated: resistance/ position of crocodile clipc) That responds: current/ ammeter reading
. E1C10
APPARATUS:
Ammeter bulb and bulb holder, nichrome wire (acts as a resistor), metre ruler,connecting wires with crocodile, dry cells
EXPERIMENT PLANNING
: You are required to plan and carry out and experiment to studyE1C1568
