    Correct Answer
    B. B
    Explanation
    Resistance should be the same for any of them, so use V=IR to find the resistance for each row, A,C,D all get a resistance of 2.4 ohms. B is different

    A. A
    Explanation
    When rubbed together one object will GAIN electrons (negative) and the other LOSE electrons (positive) opposite charges, and they would attract

    • D.

      D

    Correct Answer
    C. C
    Explanation
    need to increase length AND make it thinner (if make shorter but thinner these have opposite effects as shorter reduces resistance)

    • D.

      D

    Correct Answer
    A. A
    Explanation
    Meter x must be current as in series, Y voltage as around the resistor.
    Normally voltages are larger than currents so thats why C is not right (also can use V=IR to check)
