1.Find the total resistance of the circuit shown.
2.Find the voltage drop across the 36 Ohm resistor.
Draw the below given circuit. Change value of components according to your circuit. Use ammeter, voltmeter and ohmmeter to measure the current, voltage and resistence. Use Norton's theorem to find the current flowing through R 2 resistor shown in figure. R1=35 N, R2=50 N, R3=30 N, R4=20 Q, R=10 N and V=70 volts.
The ammeter-voltmeter method is used to measure an unknown resistance R. An ammeter (A) connected in series with the resistance reads 0.3 R. A voltmeter (V) placed across the ends of the resistance reads 1.5V. compute the value of the resistance R.
