re AS HW P3.Q1 In this experiment you will investigate how the characteristics of a circuit vary with its resistance, (a) Connect the circuit of Fig. 1.1 You should expect to spend at least 15 minutes setting up your circult. (b) (1) Close the switch, (i) Adjust the variable resistor until the current reading is at a maximum. Measure and record the ammeter reading I and the voltmeter reading V.4 (c) Adjust the variable resistor and repeat (b){Ill) until you have six sets of values of I and V. Include values of + and Zin your table. Open the switch when you have taken all your readings. i Viv z v7 48 797 | D.208 0.0012 4.6 7717 0.277 0.001 43 713 | 023% | H001K) 4l 696 | ALEY| oaks 4.0 658 G25 | 0.0064 3.9 649 O26 | a00[S (@) (i) Plot a graph of } on the y-axis against en the xaxis.
