Practical 10 The Resistivity of Conducting Paper

Introduction

In this practical the students measure the pd across different lengths of a strip of conducting paper using a multimeter, then use a graphical method to determine the current flowing through the paper.

Assessment

This practical can be used to assess DCP and CE, students should follow the same procedure as used on all the practicals up to this point in the programme. Details of the actual requirements can not be given here as it would give to much information to my students and I wouldn't be able to use this practical for assessment.
