The document describes an experiment to verify Ohm's law by measuring the current and voltage across resistors with different resistances when connected to a DC power supply. Circuits were built using a power supply and individual 1Ω, 5KΩ, and 25KΩ resistors. Current and voltage measurements were recorded in tables and plotted on graphs to show the direct relationship between voltage and current, validating Ohm's law.

Experiment No: 3
Experiment Name: verification of ohm’s law.

Working Date: 4 July 2021


Date of submission: 15 July 2021
Verification of Ohm's Law
Objectives:
1.Verify the validity of Ohm’s Law by calculating current and voltage theoretically and
practically on Tinkercad.
2.Calculating current and voltage only with a Dc power supply and resistor by creating a Dc
circuit in series.
Equipment: A Dc power supply and a resistor.
Power supply: A DC-DC power supply converts direct current coming from the power source (a
battery) from one voltage level to another depending on the point-in-time needs of the device
being supplied. DC is the preferred type of power for electronic devices.

Resistor: Resistor is an electrical component that reduces the electric current. The fixed resistor
type is the most common resistor.
Theory:
Ohm’s law describes mathematically how voltage ‘V', current ‘I' and resistance ‘R' in a circuit
are related (V=I×R). According to this law: “The current in a circuit is directly proportional to the
applied voltage and inversely proportional to the circuit resistance. So if resistance increase
voltage will increase and current will reduce.

Procedure:
 Take the Dc power supply and resistance and connect it properly before starting the
stimulation.
 WE will build a circuit like exactly as the circuit diagram.
 Now we will set the value of voltage and current for 1 Ω resistor and increase voltage
and current for four times and observe it and fill the data table 1 and show a graph for
it.
 Now we will set the value of voltage and current for 5 KΩ resistor and increase voltage
and current for four times and observe it and fill the data table 2 and show a graph for
it.
 Now we will set the value of voltage and current for 25 KΩ resistor and increase voltage
and current for four times and observe it and fill the data table 3 and show a graph for
it.
 We will observe theoretically how much current we are supposed to get and how much
we are getting practically.

Discussion:
The purpose of this experiment was verification of ohm’s law. We learn how measure voltage
and current without digital multimeter. We use here to measure only a Dc power supply and
resistor. We take three different resistor 1 Ω, 5 KΩ and 25 KΩ to measure their resistance. We
observe that when we increase voltage and current for a particular resistor the current increase
gradually. We also observe when we increase the resistor value current reduce. We also see
when we set a value of current in the power supply that will be the max current there, we
cannot get more current. If we supposed to get more current theoretically but practically, we
will not because power supply can give its max set value. So after all we verified the ohm’s law.
We plot the current in the X axis and the
Potential difference in Y axis. The relationship between voltage and current is Ohm's Law, and
the slope of the line from the graph is the value of the resistance in the circuit. Ohm’s law
follows the slope of a basic line y= mx + b where m is the slope of the line. The straight-line
graph passing through the origin
shows that the resistance of the conductor remains constant, and it is independent of both the
current and the voltage.

Precautions:
 First, need a working net connection because we are performing this lab in online.
 Must give value of current or voltage before starting the stimulation otherwise we will get
the wrong value.
 Must turn on the power supply after giving value.
 Must have to connect the power supply with resistor using wire.
