Table 2.1 (Sample Calculations):

For the total voltage of the measured value:
𝑽𝑻 = 𝟐𝟎 𝑽
Based on the laboratory manual instructions. On the other hand, the total current of the Table 2.1
is,
𝑰𝑻 = 𝐼1 = 𝐼2 = 𝟑. 𝟐 × 𝟏𝟎−𝟑 𝑨 𝒐𝒓 𝟑. 𝟐 𝒎𝑨
Since the series-parallel circuit after analyzing, the final connection will be in series. Henceforth,
as I1 and I2 are in series connection, the total current will be equal to I1 and I2.
For the calculated values of resistance, these are the sample calculations to determine the values
of individual resistance using the Ohm’s law, as well as the total resistance:
