Objective
The student will understand and handle the proper interpretation of Ohm's law, so
that at the end of practice this in possibilities of:
Calculate the voltages, currents, and resistances that are present in a
circuit.
Understanding the behavior of the current with respect to the voltage
Understanding the behavior of the current with respect to resistance.
Deduct Ohm's law


Development
1. - Dependence of the voltage
Without turning on the power supply, set the value of the potentiometer to 2.5
ohms. Use the protoboard and connect the circuit along with the 1k resistor and
1/2 watt. We armed the switch on the power circuit voltage and fill the table below,
as well as the following graph.
Voltage source Current value (measured) Current value (calculated)
0 0 0
1 0.28 mA 0.2857 mA
2 0.58 mA 0.5714 mA
3 0.86 mA 0.8571 mA
4 1.14 mA 1.1428 mA
5 1.43 mA 1.4286 mA
6 1.72 mA 1.7142 mA
7 2.01 mA 2.00 mA
8 2.28 mA 2.2857 mA
9 2.57 mA 2.5714 mA
10 2.87 mA 2.8571 mA
11 3.14 mA 3.1428 mA
12 3.42 mA 3.4285 mA
13 3.71 mA 3.7142 mA
14 4.01 mA 4.00 mA
15 4.29 mA 4.2857 mA



2. - Dependence of the resistance
With the voltage source off, the potentiometer is given the value 0. Using the
protoboard, the circuits is armed with 1K and 1/2 watt and then turn the voltage
source and is set at 15 V, and finally fills the table below as well as the following
graph

3. - Calculation of the power resistors
First source is set at 1 volt, then shuts off the power and without using the
protoboard the circuit is assembled using a resistor of 1k to (1/4) of watt and
turning the voltage source
1. - What is the current value? I = 1.02 mA
2. - What is the value of the power dissipated by the resistor? P = watt
3. -What happened to the resistance effect? Nothing
4. - Why? Because that resistance is suitable for the circuit

Reassembling the previous circuit but is now used resistance 1 volt to 1 watt
5. - What is the current value? I = 0.31 A
6. - What is the value of the power dissipated by the resistor? P = 1 watt
7. - What actually happened in the resistance? It should be heated
8. - What is the difference with the above circuit? The difference is the resistance
and the watt
9. - Why? Because of an ohm is not exactly equal because nothing happens

Conclusions
Gonzlez Prez Heriberto
Ohm's law is one of the main laws governing the fundamental study of circuits so it
is important to know how to handle both mathematically and is used primarily as a
circuit through real because without it you will not know a fact that is what happens
in a circuit, so this practice helps to reinforce and learn more about this important
law.
