EXPERIMENT NAME: Verification of Ohm’s law.

INTRODUCTION:

Ohm’s law states the relationship between electric current and potential difference.
The current that flows through most conductors is directly proportional to the
voltage applied to it. Georg Simon Ohm, a German physicist was the first to verify
Ohm’s law experimentally.

Mathematically, this current-voltage relationship can be written as

 Vα I
 V = IR

In the equation, the constant of proportionality, R is Resistance and has units of

ohms, with symbol Ω.

The same formula can be rewritten in order to calculate the current and resistance
respectively as follows:

 I = V/R
 R = V/I

Where,
V = Potential difference across the resistor.

I = Current through the resistor.

OBJECTIVE:

 To verify the ohm’s law and hence determine the unknown resistance of
the given material of the wire.
 To verify that voltage and current are directly proportional using a 10kΩ
& 10okΩ resistor.
