Experiment-build an electric circuit

Reference no: EM13721544

Build an Electric Circuit:

As you work through the steps in the lab procedure, record your experimental values and the results on this worksheet. Use the exact values you record for your data to make later calculations. Do not enter negative numbers for voltage, current, or power even though you may have negative numbers as a result of doing the experiment. Convert all negative values of voltage, current, and/or power to positive values before entering data in the lab report. Do not include units in your answers.

Series Circuit - Data

Record your data for scenario 1 in the following table.

Table 1: Series Scenario 1 (Battery Voltage = 9 V)

Resistor	Resistance (ohms)	Observed Current (amps)	Observed Voltage (volts)	Power (watts)
_R1	3.0
R2	3.0
R3	3.0

Enter the total values for voltage and power.

Table 2

Rtotal	9.0 ohms
v_total	volts
P_total	watts

Record your data for scenario 2 in the following table.

Table 3: Series Scenario 2 (Battery Voltage = 9 V)

Resistor	Resistance (ohms)	Observed Current (amps)	Observed Voltage (volts)	Power (watts)
_R1	3.0
R2	3.0
R3	3.0

Enter the total values for voltage and power.

Parallel Circuit - Data

Record your data for scenario 1 in the following table.

Table 5: Parallel Scenario 1 (Battery Voltage = 9 V)

Registor	Resistance (ohms)	Observed Current (amps)	Observed Voltage (volts)	Power (watts)
_R1	3.0
R2	3.0
R3	3.0

Enter the total values for current and power.
