Wk-4 Circuit Build # 10 – 11 – 12 - 13 with 2-5 Parallel Resistors Analysis:

Circuit Build # 10
So if: R-1 = BRN GRY BRN GLD
R-2 = ORN ORN BRN GLD and if R-1 || R-2 ; Calc RT = ___116.5____
Measured RT = ___115.6_____
Circuit Build # 11
So if: R-1 = BRN GRY BRN GLD
R-2 = ORN ORN BRN GLD
R-3 = RED RED BRN GLD
and if now R-1 || R-2 || R-3 ; Calc RT = __________________
Measured RT = _____75.3____
Circuit Build # 12
So if: R-1 = BRN GRY BRN GLD
R-2 = ORN ORN BRN GLD
R-3 = RED RED BRN GLD
R-4 = BRN RED BRN GLD

and if now R-1 || R-2 || R-3 || R-4; Calc RT = __________________

Measured RT = __46.5____
Circuit Build # 13
So if: R-1 = BRN GRY BRN GLD
R-2 = ORN ORN BRN GLD
R-3 = RED RED BRN GLD
R-4 = BRN RED BRN GLD
R-5 = BRN BLK BRN GLD

and if now R-1 || R-2 || R-3 || R-4 || R-5; Calc RT = __________________

Measured RT = ___31.5_____
Observations and Conclusions:

1. Were each of your calculations validated by your measurements? If yes, why? If no, Why?

__________________________________________________________________________

2. What was the trend of change of RT as we added successive parallel resistors?

__________________________________________________________________________

3. Which statement number(s) on your Wk-1 Series-Parallel Summary handout best applies to your
