Answer:: IR V R I R

The document discusses Ohm's law and several circuit simulations. It asks the reader to: 1) Analyze relationships between current (I), resistance (R), and voltage (V) using an Ohm's law simulation. 2) Use circuit simulations to calculate current (I) given voltage (V) and resistance (R) values, showing work. Percent errors are computed between calculated and simulated currents. 3) Transformations are made between delta and wye (star) circuits and current is calculated using those formulas.

What conclusion you can make of the relationship between I & R? Explain. (2 pts)

ANSWER:

Set batter voltage v = 9volt


If we change the resistance R, from ohm’s law we say,

Current is inversely proportional with R.


If we increase the resistance, current will decrease

3. Set V = 12 V and R = 0.7 kΩ. Compute main current I by using Ohm’s law (show your work)?
Compute percent error compare with simulation result. Insert your screenshot here (2 pts)

ANSWER:

Ohm's law states that for a circuit having a battery (voltage source) and resistor connected, and then
the current flowing from the battery through the circuit and the voltage of the battery are directly
proportional to each other.
According to ohm's law the applied voltage (V) of the electrical circuit and the current flowing (I)
through the circuit are directly proportional teach other.

That is as the applied voltage in the circuit increases, the current passing through the circuit also
increases. And as the voltage in the circuit decreases, the current flowing decreases.

hence, V is directly proportional to I  

V   I

I     V

V=RI
the proportionality sign is replaced by a constant, this constant is R, which is the resistance of the circuit.
The R is the resistance offered by the resistor connected to the circuit.
thus, R = V / I

SOLUTIONS:
We have,
V =12 v
R=0.7 KΩ=700 ohm

Then, from ohm’s law current


V 12
I= = =0.01714 Ampere=17.14 mA
R 700

THE PERCENTAGE ERROR IN CURRENT = PERCENTAGE ERROR IN VOLTAGE + PERCENTAGE ERROR IN
