Experiment No.8: OBJECT: To Determine The High Resistance by Method of Leakage of Charge

This document describes an experiment to determine the resistance of a resistor using a ballistic galvanometer. The experiment involves charging a capacitor and measuring the deflection of a galvanometer when the capacitor is discharged through different resistances. The resistance is calculated using the formula provided based on the initial deflection, deflection after discharging through the unknown resistance, the capacity of the capacitor, and the time of discharge through the unknown resistance. Observations of the deflections and times are recorded for calculating and determining the resistance.

EXPERIMENTAL SETUP

FORMULA: The resistance R of the given resistor is given by

t R=--------------------------------------C.loge(0/t)
Where, t= time for which the charge on the capacitor is allowed to leak through the high resistance R 0= first throw of the spot of light when the fully charged capacitor is discharged through the Ballistic Galvanometer. t= first throw of the spot of light when the fully charged capacitor is first discharged through the resistance R for a time t and then discharged through the Ballistics Galvanometer. C= capacity of the given capacitor in farads. PROCEDUR: 1. The spot of light of the Galvanometer is adjusted at zero of the scale 2. The connections are made as shown in the figure .Key k1 is inserted and key k3 is pressed. It will charge the condenser. 3. The key k3 is released and k4 is pressed. The first throw 0 is noted. The value of throw 0 is adjusted between 30 and 50 divisions with help of rheostat. 4. With the help of the damping key the motion of the spot is stopped. Key k3 is pressed again to charge the condenser 5. Key k1 is removed and k2 is closed. Key k3is pressed for a time t second, say 10 second. k4 is pressed after releasing k3. The first throw t is noted.

6. For the same value of 0 , t is observed for two more values of t. 7. For a different set, the value of 0is changed by varying the resistance of the rheostat and t is observed for three different values of t.

OBSERVATIONS: S.No. Initial throw in B.G. 0 (degree) Leakage time t (sec) Throw t (degree) 0/t loge(0/t) t/loge(0/t) (sec)

1 2 3 1 2 3 Mean CALCULTION: C= (F) ; t /loge(0/t)= (sec) ; R= () t/loge(0/t) = (sec)

RESULT: Resistance of the given resistor=.

PRECAUTION: 1. The Galvanometer coil should be free to rotate. 2. Damping key should be pressed when the spot is crossing zero of the scale. 3. Both the lower terminals of the high resistance rheostat are to be connected.

4. Charging of capacitor(as in step2)is essential before taking reading of t(as in step5)
