Testing Prediction on Metal Type


Use the model below to test your prediction about how wire metal affects current. When you were examining wire width, you compared data with other classmates to come up with a more accurate measurement representing current measurements taken from multiple trials. Now, just like you did to learn about wire length, you can use the modeling tool below to run multiple trials and aggregate your own data in a similar way.

There are instructions on using the data table and graphing tools are embedded in the model's instruction window. You can move this window by dragging it's blue headers and also resize it by dragging any side of it. If you close the instructions, click the GUIDE button that looks like a book in the upper right-hand corner and select "Show Guide".
