Lab Take out your series circuit work sheet. Find something to write with and a piece of paper for your group. You will be grouped by row today.
5
Directions Part 1 Measure the voltage of the battery. Turn the dial to 20 on the multi-meter (top left) Place one probe on the positive (+) and one probe on the negative (-) end. Record the voltage. Part 2 Measure the resistance of the resistors Turn the dial to 20 (bottom left) Place a probe on each side of the resistor Record the resistance for each resistor (green, blue, and red)
6
Series Circuit Simulation Re-create the circuit from question one and six from the series circuit work sheet. Measure the voltage, resistance, and current in the circuit. Compare the worksheet values to the simulations values and summarize your findings using academic vocabulary (measuring devices, voltage, resistance, current, etc.)
7
Parallel Circuit Simulation Re-create the circuit from question five and six from the parallel circuit work sheet. Measure the voltage, resistance, and current in the circuit. Compare the worksheet values to the simulations values and summarize your findings using academic vocabulary (measuring devices, voltage, resistance, current, etc.)
8
Project You will work in groups of three (groups larger than three need my approval). The project is a test grade. You can use any of the circuit supplies in the back to make your circuit. The only limitation is that it needs to fit on a circuit board. You need to make a series and a parallel circuit (if you want to combine them and make a complex circuit you may do so).
