EXPERIMENT 2
PART A
OBJECTIVES :
At the end of this experiment, students should be able to :
i. Use the power supply unit correctly.
ii. Measure the current that flow through the resistor using the ammeter
correctly.
iii. Measure the voltage across the resistor using the voltmeter correctly
iv. Understand the theory of simple direct current (DC) circuit connection.
v. Determine the relation between voltage and current in a circuit
THEORY
OHM’S LAW
Ohm’s Law states that the electrical current (I) that flows through a resistor (R) is proportional
with the differential force (V) across the resistor; under one condition which is the temperature is
unchanged.

EXPERIMENT 2
PART B
OBJECTIVES:
Resistors are said to be in series when they are connected in such a way that there is only one
path through which current can flow. This means that the current in a series circuit is the same
in all parts of the circuit.
The voltage drop across each component in a series circuit is dependent upon the current level
and the component resistance.
