Aim:
To verify ohms law and experimentally, verify the relation ship between
current ,voltage and resistance .
MATERIALS:
 Resistor box
 DC power supply
 Voltmeter
 Ammeter
Theory:

A current is directly
proportional to voltage.
When a resistance is at stable,
is consider to be
following the Ohm’s Law.
The symbol for ohm or unit is
Ω, and this is representing the
re-
sistance. Now, in order to
comprehend Ohm’s Law is to
imagine like a liquid circuit,
we
have our pump (battery;
voltage), then it is flowing
and meets it’s resistance.
This is the im-
portant part of Ohm’s law
and the resistance, is that if
the resistance is bigger, then
less wa-
ter will flow back. Therefore,
given voltage, and depending
how big the resistance is,
then it
will depend how the current
will flow through the
resistance.

DISCUSSION:
I. Variation of Current with
Voltage when the resistance
is constant.
1. First, set up the following
circuit shown below, using a
power supply, an ammeter
(A), a
voltmeter (V) and one 1000-
Ω Resistor (R) from resistor
box.
2. Then, let the instructor
check the circuit.
3. Later, close the switch and
read the voltage and current
on the meters.
4. Next, vary the output
voltage of the power supply
from 0 to 12 V in the
increment of 1.5
V and record the readings of
the voltage V across the
resistor and corresponding
current
I through the resistor in Table
1.
5. Repeat this procedure for
1200-Ω Resistor (R) from
resistor box.
6. Then, do the graph of the
voltage V (vertical axis)
versus the electric current I
(horizon-
tal axis) for each resistor.
7. Next, calculate the percent
error of the actual 1000-Ω
Resistor (R) and the
experimental
1000-Ω Resistor (R).
8. Finally, repeat step 6 and 7
but for 1200-Ω Resistor (R)

Analysis
From this experiment, we can
see that the values of voltages
depend on how big are the
val-
ues of resistors. The bigger
the values of resistors, the
bigger the values of
electromotive
force will be resulted. This
shows that the voltage range
and resistor value is linear to
each
other, while perpendicular
with the value of current.

Conclusion:
Based on the data collected and the slope calculated in the Voltage vs Current graph of the
Rheostat, the percent difference between the slope and the true value of the Rheostat con-firms
that the experimental value of the Resistance was pretty accurate and that the experi-ment was
successfully accomplished. This is similar to the example of the liner current, the more the
resistance the bigger the resistance is the lest water will flow. Ohm’s Law have been confirmed
in this laboratory experiment because of the relationship seen between cur-rent, voltage, and
resistance with the information collected
