Conclusions

This document contains conclusions from three experiments involving resistors in series and parallel circuits. The key points are: 1) Resistor values can be determined through color coding or measuring with a multimeter, though some differences may exist due to measurement errors. 2) In a series circuit, the current is the same in each resistor while the voltage drops differ across each resistor. 3) Resistors in parallel have the same voltage but different current values, and measured values may differ slightly from color coded values due to experimental errors.

Nio Roel A. Dela Cruz BSME 3A EXPERIMENT NO.

1 CONCLUSION Aside from using devices such as multitester, the resistance value of a resistor can be determined by its color coding. There are small differences between measured and color coded values of the resistances. These differences may be caused by some factors such as the multitester used in the experiment and some mistakes made by the experimenters. It is much easier to read the resistance value of a resistor through a digital multitester than by using an analog multitester and by color coding. In addition, in using an analog multitester, you have to first consider the range of the resistance and make the zeroohm adjustment in each and every reading. In that case, that is the only time you can acquire the resistance value after a slight inconvenient process. EXPERIMENT NO. 2 CONCLUSION In a series circuit, the current flowing in each resistor is the same all throughout the circuit while the voltage drop across each resistor differs from each other. Likewise, in the experiment we performed that idea became evident. However, at first it is really difficult for us to conduct the experiment since well-functioning materials were not in our consideration. Good equipments should be used such as the resistors, connecting wires, voltage supply and multitester. It is slightly more difficult to use an analog multitester than a digital multitester when accuracy is being considered. There are differences among the measured values of the resistance, voltage and current and color coded values of resistance, voltage, and current. These differences may be brought by some errors of the experimenters and other unwanted factors. EXPERIMENT NO. 3 CONCLUSION Resistors connected in parallel have the same voltage but differ in their currents values. The obtained measured values using the multitester have some discrepancy with the color coded values. The difference between the two may be brought by inconsistency on the part of the experimenters and on the materials used. It is quite confusing on how to make the resistors in their parallel form and also measure the voltages and currents on the circuit. However, it was done well by the experimenters. It is much easier to carry out this experiment as compared from the previous experiments since the experimenters considered having well-functioning materials such as the multitester, resistors, wires, breadboard, etc.
