Various materials are better or worse electricity conductors. To check whether an object is a good conductor, we use a low voltage electric circuit. You can check this method HERE.
In the lab, you are asked to check conductivity of various material. Note your observations in the lab report. As a result of this exercise, you should be able to list at least five conductors and resistors in class.
We will use multimeters to measure conductivity. See the videos below to get familiar with these devices.
How to measure resistance using multimeter is also explained in the following interactive site.
