Question 29

The potential difference across a length of constantan resistance wire is 2.85 V.

The current flowing through the wire is 0.75 A.

Calculate the resistance of this length of wire. Use the equation:

potential difference=current×resistance \text{potential difference} = \text{current} \times \text{resistance} potential difference=current×resistance
