Virtual lab: Resistance

Aim: find how the length of a wire affects its resistance, then compare resistors in series and parallel. Press the button to carry out each step of the method.

Follow the method one step at a time, or use the buttons above to finish it for you.

    Results

    Resistance R = V ÷ I.

    Graph: resistance against length

    The graph will be drawn when you reach that step.
