| Resistance and Electric Circuits | Lab 5 | | | The goal of the “Resistance and Electric Circuit” Lab was to determine the resistivity of a conducting wire given two known resistors. The main property of resistivity is that it represents how easily electrons can flow through a material. A Galvanometer is used to measure the current of the circuit and the Wheatstone Bridge is used to measure the resistances and determine the unknown resistance. This experiment also relates Ohm’s Law

Batteries‚ Resistance and Current “Battery-Resistor”: Check “show battery” and “show cores”‚ watch what happens‚ adjust some variables 1. Why do electrons (blue dots) move? Draw a diagram of the battery‚ label the flow of electrons. The flow of current (+) is opposite; draw this and note if toward or away from + terminal of the battery. The electrons move because of the battery voltage. The current flows in the opposing direction of the electrons and the electrons flow towards the positive
