DISCUSSION
An ohm’s law is dealing within the voltage and into the current into an perfect
electric conductor. As it was stated “the potential difference of the voltage across an
ideal conductor is relative to the current”. And when it is connected to a constant, it is
called the resistance which has a symbol R. When ohm’s law is already presented as
voltage equal to current multiply by the resistance, where volts is a potential difference
between two points that also involves the resistance. As a current that is currently
flowing along the resistance. It is also frequently recommended to use the conductance
which is conductance is equal to 1 over the resistance or current is divided by voltage
and has the unit, siemens. The ohm’s law is also used to help us solved some
uncomplicated circuit/s. And when there is a complete circuit then there is a complete
loop.
Ohmmeter is a resistance meter. Its design were not often used as for today and
it is almost replaced by the digital instruments. Its purpose is to find the measurement of
the resistance that is set into its lead. Through this resistance reading it can be showed
into a mechanical meter movement which takes control into the electric current.
Ohmmeter has the internal source of a voltage to make a required current to control the
development, and also have a suitable ranging resistors to enable the right amount of
current between the action at any set of resistance. There is an analog ohmmeter that is
used in backwards from the voltmeter or ammeter. As the needle of the multimeter
reads as the zero resistance at compete and infinite resistance at rest. It is also should
not be never connected to an energized circuit.
CONCLUSSION
I therefore concluded that in experiment we’ve learn on how to used DC source,
voltmeter and ammeter using the program at the desktop, as we also used and copy the
circuit diagrams at page1-7 and 1-8. Through this circuit diagram we were able to get
the result of the current. As we also measure the potentiometer and look if there is a
difference when we set it to 0%, 25%, 75%, and 100% and we set it on into the
percentage presented we listed the results at the Table 1.2, there is a different amount
of resistance when we set it to the position setting of the potentiometer . In connecting
circuit diagram, we need to check the given circuit diagram twice so that the
measurements that we’ll gonna need will appear correctly. And as we get the measured
amount of the current, we’ll be able to use the formula of the ohm’s Law by multiplying
the voltage into current so that the power will appear. Same as when solving the
resistance at Table 1.4, the voltage there is already constant which is equal to 10V and
as we were going to find the resistance, the ohm’s law formula for that is, resistance is
equivalent to the voltage over the current and then we’ll be able to put it down to the
Table 1.4.
