On Fig. 1.1, draw the symbol for a voltmeter so that it is connected to measure the potential difference across the lamp.
Use Fig. 1.3 to read off the potential difference $V$ and the current $I$, then enter both in the table.
Calculate the resistance $R$ of the lamp for both settings of the variable resistor using $R = \\frac{V}{I}$. Put the answers into the table to an appropriate number of significant figures.
State whether the student’s results show that the resistance is constant. Support your answer by referring to the results.
Another student says that the resistance of a lamp filament increases when it gets hot. State, giving a reason, whether the observations support this.
