:Objectives
To investigate the temperature dependence of a non-
linear resistance.
To measure the exponential temperature coefficient of
resistance β.
:Apparatus
• Two thermistors
• DC power supply
• Digital multi-meters (DMM)
• banana plugs wire connections and a thermometer.
:Theory
The change in resistance (Δ R) of a substance is proportional to the change in
temperature (Δ T).
