Analysis of two and four-lead resistance measurements Johnny Greavu University of Minnesota-Twin Cities September 29‚ 2014 Introduction We measured the resistance per foot of a wire using setups of both two and four test leads in tandem with a digital voltmeter (DVM) and compared their accuracy. While resistance can be determined by measuring voltage and current separately‚ it can also be measured more simply and directly using the resistance measuring feature available to some digital voltmeters

France’s 1789 revolution marked a turning point for the nation as it became both a symbol of the resistance against tyranny for France as well as social change for the better.

type B pencil had the highest resistance and type 11B pencil had the lowest resistance. B type pencils are darker than H type pencils. For B type pencils‚ the pencils get softer as its number increases. For example‚ a 6B pencil is softer than a 4B pencil. It was evident from the data that softer pencils have a lower resistance. For instance‚ the average resistance for a one centimeter line for a B type pencil was 0.275 MΩ‚ but for a 11B type pencil the average resistance decreased to 0.084 MΩ. In addition

Peaceful resistance to laws negatively impact a free society by resorting to violence‚
