EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON RESISTANCE, GSEB Physics practical std 8 to 12

Effect of Temperature on Resistance


EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON RESISTANCE







AIM :-

You are given a Wheatstone bridge, a container filled with a liquid, a resistor made from an iron wire etc. Immerse the resistor in liquid and connect it in an appropriate arm of Wheatstone bridge. Measure the resistance at different temperatures. Draw the graph of resistance versus temperature and from it find the resistance at 200 c and 1000c. Use the following formula to determine(a ), the temperature coefficient of resistance.
Formula to calculate Effect of temperature on Resistance







PRINCIPLE  :-  On increasing the temperature of a conductor its resistance increases.

APPARATUS :- A coil of iron wire, container filled with liquid, a battery (2 V), a rheostat, a sensitive galvanometer, a simple key, a thermometer, a calorimeter, a burner, wire gauge, resistance box. 
Apparatus for Effect of Temperature on Resistance 
Practical Effect of Temperature on Resistance 
Procedure of Effect of Temperature on Resistance 
PRECAUTION :-               
(1)    Keep the iron cylinder completely immersed in liquid.
(2)    Keep all connections tight.
(3)    Stir the calorimeter for uniform heating of water. Note the temperature of the liquid immediately after the null point is obtained at every observations.
Graph of Effect of Temperature on Resistance
Draw the graph of Rt ® t. it is a linear graph. Extend this straight line on both the sides. Find R20 and R100 at the temperatures 20 0C and 100 0C respectively.
R20  = …………… W at temperature 20 0C
R100 = …………… W at temperature 100 0C
\     The temperature co-efficient of resistance of the given iron-wire is
RESULT :-  Temperature coefficient of resistance at given iron wire a = ………( 0c) -1
