affects the resistance of a piece of wire. Wire is made up of atoms. Electric current is a flow of electrons‚ and it is these electrons that collide with the nucleus of the atoms. Every time this happens‚ it causes resistance. The build up of friction is what produces the heat. There are many variables that could affect the resistance of the piece of wire: Length Potential difference Tension Temperature Diameter Shape Material of the wire I have chosen to do length because

The type of physics that I will be presenting is a branch of Fluid Mechanics. Fluid mechanics studies the physics of gases and liquids. Hydraulics is defined as: "a branch of science that deals with practical applications of liquid in motion." Merriam-Webster’s Medical Dictionary‚ via www.dictionary.com The science started over thousands of years ago with Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) and Archimedes (287-212 B.C.). Many European scientists also contributed to hydraulics‚ including

investigate how the resistance of a wire is affected by the length of the wire. Theory What is resistance? Resistance is a force which opposes the flow of an electric current around a circuit so that energy is required to push the charged particles around the circuit. The circuit itself can resist the flow of particles if the wires are either very thin or very long. e.g. The filament across an electric light bulb. How is it measured? The resistance of a length of wire is calculated by measuring

resistance of a wire Introduction: Resistance is a force‚ which opposes the flow of an electric current around a circuit. Resistance is measured in Ohms. George Ohm discovered that a circuit sometimes resists the flow of electricity. He called this ’RESISTANCE.’ He even came up with a rule for working out the resistance of a circuit‚ which was: R= V ÷ I V- Volts I- Current R- Resistance Ohms law says the more resistance means more energy is needed for the current to pass through the wire. Resistance

I. Introduction Physics is the natural science that involves the study of matter and its motion through space and time‚ along with related concepts such as energy and force. More broadly‚ it is the general analysis of nature‚ conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves. Physics is one of the oldest academic disciplines‚ perhaps the oldest through its inclusion of astronomy. Over the last two millennia‚ physics was a part of natural philosophy along with chemistry‚ certain branches

You throw the ball. You catch the ball‚" said a well-respected baseball manager by the name of Casey Stengel. Mr. Stengel was a baseball man‚ not a mathematician nor a physicist. Physics and mathematics can be applied to the game of baseball on every pitch‚ and on every swing of the bat. To understand the physics of the game‚ it is first necessary to look at the center of the game‚ the ball. Section 1.09 of the Official Baseball Rules states that the ball must weigh between 5 ounces and 5 ¼
