What is the definition of current?
The speed of electrons moving
What is the definition of potential difference?
How much charge the electrons have
What is the definition of resistance ?
The amount of that it slows down the current in the circuit
Explain how the wider and shorter the wire affects the resistance?
The less the resistance because there is less friction
Explain how the the thinner and longer the wire affects the resistance?
The more resistance because there is more friction
