    This document provides instructions for an experiment to verify Ohm's Law. Students are asked to set up a circuit using a resistor, power supply, and multimeter. They will measure the current and voltage at different power supply voltages and record the results in a table. Using Ohm's Law, they will calculate the expected current and voltage. Errors will be determined by comparing measured and calculated values. A graph of voltage versus current will also be plotted to show the linear relationship as predicted by Ohm's Law.

    Ohm's law states that the voltage across a resistor is directly proportional to the current through it if the resistance remains constant. It can be expressed as V=IR, relating voltage, current, and resistance.

    Ohm's law states that the voltage (V) across a resistor is directly proportional to the current (I) flowing through it if the resistance (R) of the resistor remains constant. Mathematically, it is expressed as V=I×R, where V is the voltage, I is the current, and R is the resistance.

    The steps to verify Ohm's law experimentally involve: 1) Measuring the resistance of the given resistor. 2) Setting up the circuit and measuring the current at different applied voltages. 3) Calculating the expected current using Ohm's law and comparing it to the measured current. 4) Measuring the voltage across the resistor.

    EXPERIMENT No# 02

    Verification of Ohm’s law

    Objective: To verify the Ohm’s Law.


    Apparatus:
     Resistance
     connecting/ jumper wires
     DC variable power supply
     Digital multi meter (DMM)

    Theory:
    Every conductor possesses some resistance, which is defined as the opposition to flow of
    electrons. The devices which are specifically made for the purpose are called “Resistors”.
    Ohm’s law states:
    “Voltage is directly proportional to the current flowing through a component if resistance of that
    component remains constant”.
    Mathematically Ohm’s law can be exposed as follows,
    V=I×R

    Thus relating different quantities, if voltage across certain resistor is given we can find current
    through it and vice versa. The elements which obey Ohm’s law are called ohmic devices. Note
    that Ohm law is the linear relation so graph mathematically should be straight line if a graph is
    drawn between voltage and current keeping the resistance constant.

    Procedure:
    You have to connect the circuit given in circuit diagram given in figure 1 according to the
    steps given below.

    Figure-1

    a) Resistance measurement: First of all determine the value of a resistor supplied by


    instructor.
    1. Set the DMM to ohmmeter mode. Make sure black probe should be connected to the
    COM port and red probe should be connect to the ohm port
    2. Set the knob to ohm scale, Connect the resistor ends across the probe of DMM.
    EE-201 Lab Manual, ME Department, Wah Engineering College

    3. Set the knob to maximum range on the scale drawn on ohmmeter.


    4. Note the reading of Resistance
    b) Current measurement:
    1. Take the proto board and jumper wires. On the proto board top horizontal rows,
    select one of the hole and connect one jumper wire to any of the hole
    2. On the proto board locate the whole 2A which is one of the hole located on vertical
    connected columns. Connect the other end of the jumper wire to this hole 2A.
    3. Take the DMM set it to ammeter mode. For this purpose set the black probe in COM
    port and red probe to the mA/Ua port. Set the DMM knob to ammeter range. Note
    that DMM ammeter is a part of the circuit. DMM should be power off first
    4. Locate the hole 2C. Connect a one end of jumper wire at this hole and other end of
    the jumper wire should be connected to one probe of DMM.
    5. As DMM ammeter is a port of the circuit, now locate the hole 7C on bread board.
    Connect one end of jumper wire at this hole and other end to DMM ammeter probe.
    6. Locate the hole 7 E. Connect the resistor one end at this hole
    7. Locate the hole 7F. connect the other end of resistor at this hole
    8. Locate the hole 7 H, connect a jumper wire at this hole.
    9. Connect the other end of jumper wire to bottom horizontally connected 25 pair holes,
    10. For DC power supply connections connect the positive end of Power supply to top
    horizontal holes and negative end to bottom horizontal holes
    11. Note that ammeter and resistor is connected in series with Power supply
    12. Now switch on power supply and DMM. Rotate the knob of power supply in order to
    increase the voltage from 0v to 5v in the steps of 0.5v
    13. Note DMM ammeter current reading. Fill the Table 1 column 3 with current readings
    Note you should move the knob of DMM from maximum to minimum scale. You
    should be careful while measuring current and determine whether it is in mA or Ua
    14. After taking the current measurements switch off the power supply and DMM
    c) Current calculation:
    Apply the ohm’s law to solve for the current by the following formula and fill the
    column 4 of Table 1
    V
    I
    R
    d) Voltage Measurement:
    For voltage measurement perform the following steps
    1. In the above circuit keeping the circuit same. Locate the holes where resistor ends are
    connected. R is connected from hole 7E to 7F.
    2. Take the DMM. Set it to voltmeter mode. For this make sure that black probe is
    connected to COM and red probe is connected to the V port. Knob of DMM should
    also be at Voltmeter probe.
    EE-201 Lab Manual, ME Department, Wah Engineering College

    3. As voltage is measured by connecting the DMM in parallel. Take a jumper wire


    connect one of it to hole 7B and other to 7 G. Connect red probe of DMM to 7B and
    black probe to 7G.
    4. Now switch on the DMM and DC power supply. Increase the applied voltage by
    rotating the knob of DC power supply from 0V to 5V in the increments of 0.5V. note
    down the DMM voltmeter reading and record it in the column 5 of Table 1. This is
    measured voltage across the resistor
    5. After taking the voltage measurements switch off the power supply

    e) Voltage calculations:
    Apply the Ohm’s law to find the voltage across resistor mathematically for each
    value of I in current measurement and multiplying it by R. and fill the table 1 column 6
    f) Error Calculation:
    Find the error in both voltage and current measurement by the formula given.
    Error shows how precisely you have verified Ohm’s law. Draw the graph between
    voltage across R and current through R.
