code table. Each resistors nominal value and tolerance was defined and

recorded in Table 1a-2.

2. The maximum and minimum values for each resistor were calculated.

recorded in Table 1a-2. The values were checked whether or not fall

between the calculated ranges in step 2.

1. The end terminals and wiper terminal for the potentiometer were

determined. The terminals were labeled and numbered 1,2 and 3 being the

wiper respectively.

2. The ohmmeter was positioned across terminals 1-2, 2-3 and 1-3 and the

measured values were recorded in Table 1a-3.

the 1-3 value (theoretical value).

4. The shaft of the potentiometer was reposition and the procedures for steps

2 and 3 were repeated for another 4 trials. The results was recorded in

Calculations:

1. The value of resistance can be determined by reading the 4 color bands according to the Resistor Color Code.

2. Percentage error is calculated by using the formula below:

% of relative error = |Theoretical value – experimental value | × 100 % Theoretical value

3. For test (a), percentage difference for resistor 150Ω is 0.47% and for 20kΩ is 1.65% while 5.1MΩ is 0.59%. The error for all resistors is small and their value is approximate to the nominal value.

4. For variable resistor in test (a), the percentage error calculated for the first trial is about 0.44%, second trial gave us 0.44% of error and the third trial gave 0.77% of error.

5. For test (b), voltage is calculated by using voltmeter and the ammeter must be connected parallel to the circuit.

6. Current is calculated by using ammeter and the while ammeter must be connected series to the circuit.

7. For Test (c), The Ohm’s Law has been verified from the graph that the voltage, V across a resistor is directly proportional to the current, I, flowing via the resistor.

V= IR

8. The fact that supporting our decisions is the voltage measured across and the current through known resistors for several different values. Then, the data were plotted on a graph and yielded a straight line, proving that the relationship between voltage and current is linear.

9. The factors that affect resistance of a material with a uniform cross-sectional area are resistivity (ρ) and length of the resistance material.

10. Two types of common resistors are wire wound and composition type. Wire wound resistors are normal types of resistor while composition resistors used when large resistance is needed.

11. Not all resistors obeying Ohm’s Law, only linear resistors obey Ohm’s Law. Nonlinear resistors such as light bulb and diode did not obey Ohm’s law because their resistance varies with current.

12. For Test (d), in series circuit, the total resistance is equal to the sum of the individual resistors. Mathematically;

Rtotal= R1+R2+R3.

13. In a parallel circuit, the equivalent resistance is the reciprocal of the sum of reciprocals of individual resistors. Mathematically;

1 / Rtotal = 1 / R1 + 1 / R2 + 1 / R3

14. In series circuit, the voltage drops across resistors equals to the applied voltage. Mathematically;

Vtotal= V1+V2+V3

15. In parallel circuit, the voltage drop across each resistor in parallel is the same. Mathematically;

Vtotal= V1 =V2 =V3

16. In series circuit, the value of current is the same in all parts of the circuit. Mathematically;

Itotal= I1 = I2 =I3

17. In parallel circuit, the branch current in parallel equal to the supply current. Mathematically;

Itotal= I1 +I2 +I3

18. The aim of the experiment had been achieved.

19. From the experiment we can see that the current is same throughout the series circuit, whereas in the parallel circuit the voltage is the same.

20. Error in circuit connection, error by ammeter and voltmeter and error in reading the current and voltage may contribute to the discrepancies in the results for each point of the aim

21. The principle of voltage division applicable to the voltage in the series circuit whiles the principle of current division applicable to the current in the parallel circuit.

CONCLUSION

1. Theoretically, the resistance value can be verified by referring to the resistor

color code while the measured resistance can be determined by using digital

multimeter.

2. The voltage is measured in parallel and current in this circuit is measured in

series.

3. The experiment has satisfied to Ohm’s Law that there is direct relationship

between voltage, V, and current, I , across resistor. The verified Ohm’s Law

represents the straight linear line of a graph Voltage, V vs. current, I, while its

slope represents the resistance.

4. In the series circuit, the total resistance is equal to the sum of the individual

resistors. The voltage drops across the resistors equals to the applied voltage.

The value of the current is the same in all parts of the circuits.

5. In the parallel circuits, the equivalent resistance is the reciprocal of the sum of

reciprocal of the individual resistors. The branch current in parallel equal to

the supply current. The voltage drop across each resistor in parallel is the

same.

6. There are few factors that affect the outcome of the results. Firstly, there might

be problems in the process of manufacturing the apparatus. Secondly, the

condition of the apparatus is poor as it has been used for a number of times

and get a little bit rusty. The voltage values could not be set exactly as the

required values due to human weakness. There is also resistance in the

apparatus used such as the wires and the digital multimeters.

7. Overall, the objectives of the experiment have been successfully achieved.
