 Name of the Experiment: Verification of KVL & Voltage Divider Rule

Objective:
• To introduce with the Kirchhoff’s voltage law (KVL) & Voltage divider rule.
• To verify these two rules with the help of a series circuit both experimentally and analytically.
• To measurement Voltage and current in a dc circuit.

Theory:
According to KVL the sum of the voltage rises in any closed circuit is equal the sum of the volt
drops.
∑ VRises = ∑VDrops
The voltage divider rule is given by
The equivalent (total) resistance of a series circuit is given by
RS = ∑ RX = R1 + R2

Experiment components:
1. Resistors:R1 =
R2 =
2. Multimeter [2 Pieces]
3. Trainer Board [1 set]
4. Connecting wires [as required]
Circuit Diagram:
Here V=5v,10V,15v
R1=2.2K Ω
R2=1.2K Ω
R3=1K Ω

Procedures:

1. Construct the circuit as shown

2. Use the variable DC source
3. Connect ammeter in series and connect the voltmeter in parallel across the resistance which
voltage drop need to be measured. Also, measured the value of R1, R2 using multimeter.
4. Note down the value of I, V1, V2, V3, R1, R2, R3 in the data table-1.
5. Varying DC source value from 5 V to 9v by 1volt step and every time measured the above
three variables [I, V1, V2, V3] as mentioned in procedure-4 and record them in data table-1
below.
6. Verify KVL (i.e., E = I, V1, V2, V3). Find total resistance of the series circuit using the formula R
= R1+R2+ R3. Compare this with experimentally obtained value of R(T) = E/I. Verify voltage
divider rule.
7. Calculate the percentage of error

Conclusion: In this experiment we verified kvl voltage divided rules with percentage of error.
There may be some calculation errors in this experiment because there is a lot of interference
during volt, current measurement
