Wire Resistance and Ohms Law
Procedure Part I Wire Resistance:
open the h!" #imulation Electricity, Magnets, and Circuits Resistance in a Wire.
$s wire len%th &cm' increases( the resistance &)' _______increases__________
$s wire area &cm

' increases( the resistance &)' _______decreases___________
$s wire resisti+it, &)cm' increases( the resistance &)' ______increases_________
Procedure Part II: Ohms Law: Electricity, Magnets, and ircuits Ohms Law
m$ is milliamps( and ____!"""_____ milliamps e-uals one $mpere.
.o+e the potential &+olts' and resistance &ohms' sliders and o/ser+e the current &amps'

that will work. 2ou rationaliEe that =our such 74 =t cords will do the Fo/. <s this a %ood idea? Wh, or Wh, not?
______________________________________No, 5ecause the added distance increases the resistance and causes less
current and 6oltage at the end o7 the 1ower cord. 8he dro1 in 6oltage could damage the
stereo._____________________________________________________
