    This document describes an experiment on analyzing resistive networks. The objectives are to demonstrate the characteristics of series-parallel circuits by measuring and verifying calculations of resistance, voltage, and current. A sample circuit diagram is shown, along with a final data sheet displaying measured and calculated values. The summary discusses the key findings that in a series circuit, total current is equal across components and total voltage is the sum of voltages, while in a parallel circuit the total voltage is equal across components and total current is the sum of currents. Kirchhoff's laws and Ohm's law are also discussed. The conclusion states that series and parallel portions must be identified, and the theories were proven through gathered data.

    Summary of Analysis
    The total current flowing across the resistors which are connected in series connection is equal. On
    the other hand, the total voltage is equivalent to the summation of the voltages across each
    resistor because the voltage on a series connection is not equal.
    The total voltage flowing across the resistors which are connected in parallel is equal. In addition,
    the total current in a parallel circuit is equivalent to the summation of current across each resistor
    primarily for the reason that the current along the parallel circuit is not equal.
    Using the principle of Kirchhoffs Current Law, the summation of all currents in a certain node
    should be equal to zero.
    Using the principle of Kirchhoffs Voltage Law, we could say that the summation of the voltages
    across a certain closed loop should be equal to zero.
    The total resistance of a parallel circuit is equal to the sum of the reciprocals of each resistances
    of the resistor which is in parallel which could be expressed by using the formula respectively.
    On a series circuit, the total resistance is equal to the sum of the resistances of each resistor.
    On a series and parallel circuit the formula for the total resistance in series and in parallel should
    be combined.

    Conclusion
    On the entire course of the experiment, we determined the characteristics of a
    series-parallel circuit. On this type of circuit, we wont be able to apply a single
    set of rules on the entire circuit. We must identify which part of the circuit is with
    series or with parallel with each other.
    We conclude that the theories presented such as the KCL, KVL and Ohms Law
    were proven through the data gathered and the theoretical values. On using KVL
    on ABCDA loop, There is a slight difference because of the internal resistance
    present on the VOM affected the reading. Meanwhile by utilizing KCL at node C,
    there is also a slight discrepancy because we opt to use the analog ammeter
    rather than the electronic VOM. Ohms Law is utilized to get the total current on
    the circuit or the total resistance present on the circuit. We also used this law to
    calculate the individual resistance on the resistors.
    When the resistors are in series, we could easily get the equivalent resistance by
    getting their sum, meanwhile the current of a component on the circuit is equal
    all throughout the circuit. On the other hand, the total current of a parallel circuit
    is equal to the sum of the current on each branch and the voltage on the
    separate braches must be equal to each other.
