New Oscilloscope
Trying out my new oscilloscope before I do any experiments with the students, so I am confident in its use and what the buttons do and there are lots on this one #iteachphysics

Measuring the resistance of a length of Wire
Getting ready to do the resistance is proportional to the length of wire practical. Using a rheostat to visualise the system in a smaller space. Using the Locktronics by @matrixtsl to simplify and explain the circuit
