    1) The document describes an experiment to verify Ohm's Law using a circuit with a resistor. 2) Students are instructed to build the circuit and measure the voltage and current using a multimeter with the resistor first set to 10 ohms and then 20 ohms. 3) They are asked to determine if their findings are consistent with Ohm's Law, which states that current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance.

    Exercise 1: Ohms Law

    Begin by reading the material on measuring voltage prepared by Prof E. J. Mastascusa at


    Bucknell University. Next create the folloing circuit on your breadboard!
    Questions:
    ". #n the circuit above$ the rating of the resistor is not specified %i.e.$ &' (hms)*. Place a
    " k(hm resistor in the circuit$ and measure and record the voltage drop across it
    ++++++++++++++++++++.
    ,. Measure and record the current floing in the circuit!+++++++++++++++++++++.
    %Be sure to reconfigure your multimeter for measuring current.*
    -. .eplace the " k(hm resistor ith a "/ k(hm resistor$ and again measure and record
    the voltage drop across the resistor ++++++++++++++++++++.
    %Be sure to reconfigure the leads of your multimeter for measuring voltage.*
