AIM- OUR AIM WAS TO FIND OUT WHICH VARIABLES AFFECT RESISTANCE‚ AND WHICH ONE HAS THE GREATEST EFFECT. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Resistance is the force that opposes the flow of electrons in a circuit. The equation for resistance is Ω=V/A. (Ohms equals Voltage divided by amps). Resistivity is a measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of electrical current‚ There are four main factors that affect resistance: Length – this is because the electrons would bump into more atoms‚ the longer

The origin of this label is the predominant scientific rationality in the western society‚ which has made other forms of enquiries and rationalities

Part 2: Safe work with large inductances 1. One of the main hazards of using inductances is electrical energy stored in the magnetic field. If a circuit containing an inductance is interrupted then the stored energy can release through air (forming an arc). This can destroy a switch contact‚ burn fingers‚ create other damage. In the circuit of Figure 1‚ show how to mitigate the risk (pay attention to polarity!). We give the elements in this circuit some simple values for the purpose of
