Purpose: To investigate the relationship between voltage and current on specific resistors.
Materials: Three Resistors (R1,R2,R3)
Power Supply
Multimeter or Voltmeter and Ammeter
Wires with alligator clips
Procedure:
1 Setup a simple circuit with R1 and the listed material above.
2. Vary the voltage from 0 to 12V in 2-volt increments, using the voltmeter to read the voltage.
3. Record the current for each voltage on the table below.
4. Repeat the procedure for R2 and R3.
