Ohm's Law

The document describes an experiment to verify Ohm's Law. The experiment involves: 1. Setting up circuits with a variable voltage source and fixed resistor to measure how current changes with voltage. 2. Setting up circuits with a fixed voltage source and variable resistor to measure how current changes with resistance. 3. Using the data collected to graph current versus voltage and current versus resistance and verify that the relationships follow Ohm's Law.

OHM’S LAW

Activity 3

55054 BEE LAB 0700 – 1000 Saturday

February 20, 2021


BASIC CONCEPTS

Ohm's Law is one of the most fundamental and important laws governing electrical and
electronic circuits. Ohm's Law is used within all branches of electrical and electronic science. It
is used for calculating the value of resistors required in circuits, and it can also be used for
determining the current flowing in a circuit where the voltage can be measured easily across a
known resistor, but more than this, Ohm's Law is used in a vast number of calculations in all
forms of electrical and electronic circuit- in fact anywhere that current flows.

OBJECTIVES

 state Ohm's law


 solve for each variable in Ohm's law
 describe what happens to the current of a circuit when either the voltage or
resistance is increased or decreased

PROCEDURES AND SET-UP

DATA AND RESULTS


TABLE 1

Compare the computed Rave with the


resistance R1 = 100 .

Answer:

The Rave = 100 Ω is the same with R1 =


100 Ω.

Sketch the graph of V vs. I. Describe


and interpret the graph.

The graph is going upward, that means


the higher the voltage the
ampere will also increase.

TABLE 2
Compare the computed Vave with the voltage V1 = 10 V.

Answer:

The Vave= 10V is the same with V1 = 10 V.

Sketch the graph of I vs. R. Describe and interpret the graph.

The higher the resistor and ampere the


graph will be go downward.

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

In the circuit, there is only one source of voltage (on the left) and only one source of resistance
to current (on the right). This makes it very easy to apply Ohm’s Law. If we know the values of
any two of the three quantities (voltage, current, and resistance) in this circuit, we can use
Ohm’s Law to determine the third.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

Ohm's Law deals with the relationship between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. This
relationship states that: The potential difference (voltage) across an ideal conductor is proportional
to the current through it. The constant of proportionality is called the "resistance", R. This can be
expressed in an equation as V=IR and can be manipulated to find the other two variables. (I and
R) The point of graphing this lab experiment was to establish the relationship between current
and voltage in part I and the relationship between current and resistance in part II.
