2. Apparatus:
Theory:
According to Kirchhoff’s Current Law, the algebraic sum of all currents meeting at a junction
or a node in any electric circuit at any instant is zero.
∑=0
Algebraic sum means we have to consider the sign conventions. If current enters the node, it
will take positive value and if current goes away from node, it will take negative value.
Calculations:
According to KCL,
Algebric sum of incoming current = Algebric sum of outgoing current. So, from circuit diagram
and observation table we get,
→ I1 = I2 + I3 & → I3 = I4
→ 12A = 8A + 4A → 4A = 4A
→ 12A = 12A
6. Observations/Discussions:
The possible error which can happen is due to internal resistance of the multimeter or due to any
loose connections.
8. Result/Output/Writing Summary:
As per Kirchhoff’s Current Law, the value of the incoming current at the junction is equal to the
outgoing current. So, as we have seen the algebraic sum of current at each node is equal to zero.
i.e., I1 = I2 + I3 & I3 = I4

2. Apparatus:
Theory:
• In any closed path (mesh or loop) of an electric circuit, the algebraic sum of product of
current and resistance in each of the conductors plus the algebraic sum of electromotive
forces (emfs) in that closed path is zero.
ΣEmf + ΣIR = 0
• Algebraic sum means we have to consider the sign convention. A rise in potential is
considered as positive, while a fall in potential is considered as negative.

4. Connecting Wires As per requirements As per requirements
3. Construction of LVDT:
LVDT is a differential transformer consisting of one primary winding P and two identical
secondary windings S1 and S2 wound over a hollow bobbin of non-magnetic and insulating
material as shown in figure. The secondary windings S1 and S2 have an equal number of turns
which are arranged concentrically and placed on either side of primary winding P. A soft iron
core, attached to the sensing element of which displacement is to be measured, in the shape of
rod or cylinder slides freely in the hollow portion of the bobbing. The eddy current losses are
reduced by using nickel iron alloy as core material and are slotted longitudinally.
4. Circuit Diagram:
5. Steps for experiment:
1. Connect LVDT kit into mains and switch ON the supply as shown in figure.
2. Connect ‘X’ channel of CRO to primary winding of LVDT and ‘Y’ channel of CRO to
output of secondary winding in LVDT kit.
3. Adjust micrometer scale at “0” position in order to coincide with “0” of vernier scale.
4. If display of displacement is not showing “0” in LVDT, adjust scale error to have
reading equal to zero.
5. Scroll micrometer on either sides to have displacement of soft iron core on right side
and left side.
6. Note down the reading of amplitude of voltage by counting number of divisions and
multiply it with volt/div from CRO for a particular displacement.
7. Take five set of readings for displacement on right side and left side.
8. Record the readings in Table.
9. Plot graph of voltage amplitude vs. displacement and comment on the nature of graph.
Theory:
• LVDT is an inductive transducer for translating the linear motion into an electrical signal.
• It is suitable for use in applications where displacements are too large ranging from a
fraction of mm to few cm. For example, strain gauge, mechanical displacement greater
than 25 mm etc.
• LVDT can be connected with other transducers in cascade for measurement of other
physical quantities such as force, weight, pressure etc.

Non-inverting Amplifier: An amplifier whose O/P is in phase with the input. It can amplify ac
& dc signals. Its gain depends upon the values of feedback resistance (RF) & input resistance
(R1). Figure 1 shows inverting amplifier.

Theory:
Inverting Amplifier: An amplifier whose O/P is out of phase with the input. It can amplify ac
& dc signals. Its gain depends upon the values of feedback resistance (RF) & input resistance
(R1).
VO = -VIN (RF/R1)
By rearranging the terms, we will get Voltage gain Av = Vo/ Vin = – Rf/Rin.
Gain:
This indicates that the voltage gain of the inverting amplifier is decided by the ratio of the
feedback resistor to the input resistor with the minus sign indicating the phase-reversal.
Further, it is to be noted that the input impedance of the inverting amplifier is nothing but
Rin.
