Question 8
Figure 8
Figure 8 above shows an incomplete electrical circuit used in an experiment to
test the electrical conductivity of different types of materials. A copper rod is first
held between points P and Q using the crocodile clips. Then the light bulb is
observed. The experiment is repeated with an iron rod, a sulphur rod and a
phosphorus rod. The four rods used have the same length and diameter.
