April 4 AP Physics
In: How much energy is dissipated as heat in 20 s by a 100 Ω resistor that carries a current of 0.5 A? a)50 j b)100 j c)250 j d)500 j e)1000 j
Objective: To measure: Resistance Voltage Current Success criteria Build a circuit and measure elements
With your circuit elements: Make a series circuit, Measure: –Total resistance, –Resistance of each element –Voltage total –Voltage across each element – current total and thru each element Draw a circuit diagram with each value Repeat for parallel circuit
