Relationship between the temperature of a brick and its resistance

[eliboy]

How can i heat a house brick in a school laboratory to 800 degree centigrade and also determine the temperature of the brick. Suggestion of how the resistance of the brick can be determine.

This is a p1$$ take isn't it?

see the "category search" box at the bottom of the list of categories? while your in science, type "brick" into this box and look for questions almost identical to yours. you'll find the answer there.

incidentally, these questions will all be the ones that came up before your Q was posted, on the screen where it offers similar answered Qs & asks if you're sure you still wish to post yours.

hey eliboy, Im doing the same one as you, Use a kiln with a temperature control. And use a thermocouple to be sure of the temp. Using the kiln you may have to have it higher than the temp you want it as brick are insulators and wont heat at the same rate. A kiln cant be found in a lab, but as you don't have to actually do the experiment just say that your DT department has one.
