Resistivity

With this in house diagram we were suppose to determine what would happen if we closed a switch. We thought it would make A dimmer and B stay the same, but we were wrong. It in fact both stayed the same since each potential remained the same.
We wrote down what would the correlation with resistance and an objects length, area and material make up of an object.


This is the real world units of Ohms. But its not very useful. 


We were tasked to find the hot and cold resistance of this circuit. We calculated the hot resistance then determined that the cold resistance had to be less.



We just measured the real world resistance of this... resistor.





Then we measures the resistance when we have a voltage through it.




Here we looked at how to calculate how much nodes. branches, and loops there are in this circuit.


Simple K-Law example

Lab


First time with wave form. It did not turn out well.

Our breadboard setup was just fine but we cold not get results.



Summary

This lab did not turn out so well and we were not able to really determined what was needed.
However, we were able to find the linear like relationship between current and voltage.

We are just reviewing what we did in our lass class meeting. It was a simple mess problem. Why cant all problems be mess. He should only ask us to fin the current of a circuit and not the voltages. I did not really understand what he was doing here. You are suppose to assume that the voltage is a random number then solve for everything else on the circuit then when you get to the other voltage source you see the ration that you are off by then multiply everything else by it and then you will get your answer. Lab (Super Position II) I don't know how to rotate this picture, but it is our first example of superposition. We are suppose to find the currents at places with superposition even though mesh law is better for this situation. This is how we set up our "breadboard". We try to make it look like the white board setup to make it easier to read and determine what resistor We are just measuring the voltage drop on each resistor. With t...

Looking back to this day in lab made me wonder how it looked so hard before. We just had to follow some simple steps to find "a" and "w" . Then find s1 and s2 for the circuit This was a different problem but here we determined if the circuit was over damping, under damped or critically damped F ollowing that we found the ratio of a/w. LRC Lab I n the pre-lab we had to theoretically find how the circuit would react to the given conditions  I t was a simple circuit as seen about. We has to measure the response across the Cap and Inductor.  Conclusion  In the end the circuit acted the way that we thought I would in the pre-lab. The graph below shows the discharge of the capacitor (I think).

This was some want something I was able to do. It took  me a while to get back into my mojo. OH... here is Q and B. I did not know what that meant  on the final. Lab In the pre-lab we needed to figure out how the circuit would  respond in many different frequencies. In the end we got good data and everything was the way it was suppose to be. It took a long time to just get the numbers. it felt like busy work.
