Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to study the basics of a direct current circuit. There are several parts to this experiment‚ where resistors are set up as parallel‚ series or both. We measure the potential difference and current measured by voltmeter and ammeter respectively. Also‚ we set up a Wheatson Bridge to measure the unknown resistor. Equipment: Voltmeter PCC 000218 Galvanometer PCC 000180

Ohm’s Law is V = I * R or in some cases I = V / R. The next two laws were established by a German physicist by the name of Gustav Kirchhoff. Kirchhoff’s first law is his voltage law. Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law (KVL) states that around any loop in a circuit‚ the voltage rises must equal the voltage drops. The next law that Kirchhoff introduced was his current law. Kirchhoff’s Current Law (KCL) states that the total current entering a junction must equal the total current leaving the junction. These laws

Lee 1 Kwan Woo Lee Lab Report#1 Measurements in resistive networks and circuit laws laboratory Abstract: The purpose of this lab is to verify the Ohm’s Law‚ Kirchhoff’s Voltage and Current Laws. As well as the introduction to the voltage division. The Ohm’s Law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points (V = IR). The Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law states that the directed sum of the electrical voltage

Lab 4 – Series and Parallel DC Circuits PHY2049L Friday Lab 1:00 8th February‚ 2013 Introduction The purpose of this lab experiment is to test the predictions for current‚ voltage and resistance of the relationships of parallel and series circuits. The procedures strive to prove that the theoretical outcomes are consistent with the corresponding measured results. After setting up the closed circuits we want to test our own results into the equations

Experiment 5: RC Circuits Abstract The purpose of this lab is to learn and understand RC Circuits. An RC circuit is composed of at least one resistor and at least one capacitor. A capacitor is composed of two plates with either air or an insulator also known as a dielectric between the plates. We do not want the plates to be touching‚ because then we would only have a conductor. The insulator between the plates is also known as the dialectic‚ which affect how the capacitor will store
