Applications of the Wheatstone bridge kit
The kit is used to find an unknown resistance by balancing a bridge circuit along the 1000 mm nichrome wire, and to measure resistance directly from voltmeter and ammeter readings for comparison.
- Determining an unknown resistance with a slide-wire (metre) bridge
- Finding the resistivity of a wire from its measured resistance
- Comparing bridge results with voltmeter-ammeter measurements
- Verifying the laws of combination of resistances in series and parallel
- Current electricity practicals in senior secondary and B.Sc physics
