RESULT
For a conducting wire of uniform area of cross-section carrying a steady
current, the potential difference across a length of wire is proportional to the
length.
PRECAUTIONS
1. The ends of the connecting wires should be clearned before making
connections.
2. The connections should be neat and tight.
