VOLTAGES MULTIMETER OSCILLOSCOPE

V1 13.47V 13.5V

V2 4.66V 4.47V

V3 4.66V 4.47V

It can be concluded that whether calculated, measured on a multimeter or on a oscilloscope, the


voltage stays within a close range to the calculated value.
Part 2

Refer to last page for Figure#2 circuit.

RESISTANCES VALUES

RXY 1343 Ω

RAB 942 Ω

RPB (JUMPER REMOVED) 4860 Ω

RAB (JUMPER REMOVED) 942 Ω

RXY was the measurement of the total resistance of the circuit with the jumper wire attached, RAB was
the measurement of resistors 2 and 3 added together in parallel with the jumper attached. After
removing the jumper, we measured RPB, it came out to be 4860 Ω which is resistors 4 and 5 added
together in series. Finally, we remeasured RAB and received the same value as before, this is because
even with the jumper removed, RAB consisted of resistors 2 and 3 which remained the same.
Part 3

Refer to last page for Figure#3 circuit.


RESISTORS NOMINAL MEASURED
R1 3300 Ω 3252 Ω
R2 2200 Ω 2172 Ω

R3 1000 Ω 979 Ω
R4 2700 Ω 2671 Ω
R5 560 Ω 559 Ω
RT 1032.77 Ω 1021 Ω
(Calculated)
1 1 1 1 1
𝑅1,2,3 = + + = 568.97Ω 𝑅4,5 = + = 463.8Ω
3300Ω 2200Ω 1000Ω 2700Ω 560Ω
𝑅𝑇 = 568.97Ω + 463.8Ω = 1032.77Ω
When first measuring total resistance between point A and B, we received 1021 Ω as our total. While
measuring resistance between point X and Y, we obtained 561 Ω. After connecting a jumper wire
between point X and Y and then remeasuring total resistance, we gained a new total of 458 Ω. That
number did not change even after removing R2. This is because the jumper wire acts as a new path for
the current to travel, instead of having to travel through all 3 resistors therefore increasing resistance,
it goes straight through the jumper wire and onto R4 and R5. In other terms, the jumper wire shorted
out the first 3 resistors, only measuring the final 2.
