A student is provided with a variable DC power supply, an 80 cm length of constantan wire taped to a metre ruler, and other standard laboratory equipment.
Draw a circuit diagram of the apparatus the student should set up to determine the resistance of a 30 cm section of this wire.
Your circuit diagram must use standard circuit symbols and clearly show how the connection to the 30 cm section of the wire is made.
