4 Planning investigations: resistance of a wire

1. a. A and C
b. If you collected the data yourself it would be primary, but if you used
someone else's data it would be secondary.
2. Independent variable: current. Dependent variable: temperature rise of
the water. Variables to control: wire, voltage, room temperature time in
the water. Students' own answers.
Extension
a. C is the odd one out because you would do a fair test/vary the type of
wire and measure the current, the rest you are finding one value. b. Any
suitable answer.
