Resistance Per Unit Length Practical

The document describes an experiment to determine the resistance per unit length of a wire. The apparatus used includes a 100cm long metallic wire, a resistance box ranging from 0-10 ohms, a voltmeter ranging from 0-3V, an ammeter ranging from 0-1A, a 4V DC power supply, a plug key, and connecting wires. Observations of resistance (R), voltage (V), and current (I) are recorded in a table to calculate resistance (r) and then determine the mean resistance per unit length.
