    average resistance from 10 voltage and current measurements‚ and find the graphical resistance using a trend line. The results show that the average resistance calculated from 10 voltage and current readings and the graphical resistance were closest to the measured resistance‚ while the color coding resistance was furthest off. Introduction: Georg Simon Ohm established that current (I) in a wire is proportional to the voltage (V) applied to its ends. How much current flows in the wire depends on the

    Abstract-In this we use a piezoelectric crystal which gives variable voltage output depending upon the vibrations given on the crystal surface. This voltage is converted to current using suitable converter. Now the current is passed through a memristor‚ which has a corresponding resistance value. Whenever the current increases‚ the resistance value increases and the change in resistance is detected using a microwave generator connected at the end. Using the microwave level‚ an external device (similar

    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

    Thomas Edison’s contributions to society through the science of electricity are undeniable and extremely significant. However‚ in the competition between his promoted DC electricity and George Westinghouse’s AC electricity‚ Edison employed some seemingly questionable motives in an attempt to succeed in the three-fold motive; enhance his reputation as a leading scientist‚ reap the profits that would come‚ and protect his established reputation which would be ‘dented’ by losing. Edison’s reputation
