Factors Affecting Resistance – Temperature  We already know that the resistance of a conductor depends on temperature.  Increased temperature has two effects:  Heat releases extra electrons from the atoms, decreasing resistance.  Heat causes atoms to vibrate more, increasing resistance.  For metallic conductors, very few electrons are released, so resistance increases with increasing temperature.  For insulators and semiconductors, lots of electrons are released, so resistance decreases with increasing temperature.

Factors Affecting Resistance

Factors Affecting Resistance - Length

Factors – Cross-Sectional Area

Factors - Resistivity

Factors Affecting Resistance

Light-Dependent Resistor  A light-dependent resistor (LDR) is a semiconductor that decreases its resistance when light shines on it.  Light hitting the resistor releases electrons from the molecules, allowing them to conduct electricity.

Thermistor  A thermistor is a semiconductor designed to decrease its resistance as its temperature increases.  The heat energy frees electrons from the material, allowing them to be used for conduction.

Wheatstone Bridge

Wheatstone Bridge – Uses  Usually, one resistor is variable and set to monitor something, while the galvanometer is replaced by some circuit.  e.g. A thermistor can be used to monitor room / oven temperature and the galvanometer can be replaced by a heater.  When the thermistor unbalances the circuit due to falling temperature, a current flows and activates the heater.  Also used in fail-safe devices.

Wheatstone Bridge  e.g. If the bridge pictured is balanced, what is the value of R?
