The comparison between theoretical and experimental data shows small
percentage errors, indicating that the circuit behaves as expected according to
the loading effect theory. The errors is minimal. This confirms that as the load
resistance increases, the output voltage also increases it reducing the loading
effect. The results support the theory that a lower load resistance causes a
greater voltage drop due to increased current draw.
