Studentswill also be introduced to the resistor color code andrefresh their graphing s Law states that the current,I, that flows in acircuit is directly proportional to the voltage,V, acrossthe circuit and inversely proportional to the resistance,R, of the circuit:I=VR( )In this Experiment , the current flowing through a resis-tor will be measured as the voltage across the resistoris varied.
determined for Ohmic resistors (R i, i = 1, 2, 3). Non-Ohmic resistors (R 4, light bulb) do not obey Ohm’s Law. Ammeters are connected in series so that the cur-rent flows through them. The ideal ammeter has a re-sistance of zero so that it has no e↵ect on the circuit. Real ammeters have some internal resistance.
