1. Choose the lab option and build the circuit shown below. Click on the resistors and batteries to set their values. I
1. Build the following circuit (note that there are 2 types of resistors in the element list on the left. The one further down the list has higher possible resistances): E₁ = 120 V 100002 R₁ = 10000 R₂ = 1000 100 Ω 1. Build the following circuit: 2000 1000 Q R₁ = 10000 2. Measure the current through each resistor 3. Measure the voltage drop (potential difference) across each resistor and the emf of each battery. 4. Put your data in a table like the one for Circuit 1. Circuit 3 E = 100 v 100.0 V
1. Build the following circuit: 80.0 V₁ 800 R₁ 2000 100 R 120.0 4000 R₁ Es 100.0 V 120.00 2. Measure the current through each resistor 3. Measure the voltage drop (potential difference) across each resistor and the emf of each battery. 4. Put your data in a table like the one for Circuit 1. Data Analysis Junction Rule 1. For circuits 1 and 2, pick a junction. Using your current data, test the junction rule prediction that I in = I out. Write out your equations. Did your currents agree with the junction rule
Junction Rule 1. For circuits 1 and 2, pick a junction. Using your current data, test the junction rule prediction that Iin Iout Write out your equations. Did your currents agree with the junction rule predictions? 2. For circuit 3, pick 2 junctions with different combinations of currents and test the junction rule. Write out your equations. Did your currents agree with the junction rule predictions? Loop Law loop law: 1. For circuit 1, use your voltage data to check the AV = 0 around a closed loop. Check all 3 loops, writing down your equations. From your data, is Kirchhoff's loop law valid? 2. Repeat the previous question for circuit 2. 3. Pick 3 loops to check from circuit 3 (there are many more loops possible in this circuit) and repeat the analysis from the previous 2 circuits.
