About this document

Nichrome Wire Resistance Experiment by api-357642569 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Resistance increases as the number of collisions between electrons increases in a conductor. Nichrome wire, which has a high melting point, is commonly used for heating elements. The experiment investigates how the length and thickness (gauge) of nichrome wire affects its resistance by passing a current through different wires submerged in water and measuring the temperature change over time. Results show that resistance increases as gauge decreases (thickness increases) and as length increases, causing gre
