I. TITLE
II. OBJECTIVE
In this experiment, multiple tests were carried out in which circuit parameters were
changed to influence the resistance of a system to get a better knowledge of
resistance. The initial series of experiments focused on the interactions between
voltage and current in a system with constant resistance. In the second set of studies,
it was possible to observe how resistance varied as a resistor's length and cross-
sectional area changed. While the last experiment produced findings regarding how a
circuit's resistance changes when it is in parallel or series. The experiment's findings
confirmed that current and resistance are inversely related to each other while voltage
and resistance are proportional.

VII. DISCUSSION/QUESTIONS
Question: What do the terms "resistor" and "resistor color coding" mean?
Answer: An electrical component known as a resistor is used to regulate the passage
of electrical current. The most prevalent kind of resistors are made of carbon. They
have colored bands all over their bodies that indicate how much resistance they have.
Question: Why do theoretical and practical results different from one another?
Answer: The accuracy of the testing equipment and ambient factors determine the
actual results, even if no scientific or practical method can ever completely match the
theory. While we obtained outstanding findings for our lab report, the quality of the
resistor also affects the tests. According on your theory, you can obtain different
outcomes.
VIII. CONCLUSION
In accordance with Ohm's equation, I = V/R, the current flowing through a material is
inversely related to its resistance and directly proportional to the applied voltage. As
far as the voltage is not too high and the temperatures are not too extreme, this
relationship holds true for many metallic materials.
