Note: When writing the report, make sure you write in 3 rd person Introduction: In this lab we will be adding three resistors to a dc circuit with a 5 percent tolerance. We will be looking for resistance total, total amperage, voltage across resistors, wattage total, and wattage at each resistor. Along with testing these values we manually calculated these values to add into a chart to compare to the circuit we created. Equipment/Components: In this week’s lab we will be using a wattmeter to test wattage through the circuit and through a resistor along with a DVM to test voltage and resistance. Procedure: We will be using Ohms law to solve for the wattage, resistance, and amperage of the circuit that we are creating. Then we will use a DVM and a wattmeter to compare the manual results.
