GCSE, Physics: What affects the resistance of a piece of wire?

Metals are good conductors of electrical current as they contain free electrons that are free to move about or flow and therefore ... carry and transfer energy as a current, Current is the measure, in amperes, of the rate of flow of electrical charge through a circuit. All circuits / components have resistance making it difficult f ... use of their increased energy. This causes more collisions, and collisions slow the rate of flow of electrical charge through the circuit, and so cause more resistance.- Material; the type of material ...
