===== Description =====

Demonstrates resistance of a metal varying with temperature





===== Purpose =====

To show that the resistance of a metal decreases when cooled; this demonstrates a positive temperature coefficient of resistance.    

===== Apparatus =====

Dewar flask, liquid nitrogen, light and series wound resistor    

===== Setup =====


1. Switch on apparatus and since the resistor is in series with the lamp and the 115 V supply for the lamp will not glow at full brightness. 
2. Dip resistor into the liquid nitrogen and the light will shine brighter.   Updated on: 01/18/16
