Lab 8 - Superposition Theorem
Sle
Purpose
The purpose ofthis lab is to prove the Superposition Theorem.
Materials
+ 1k resistor
+ 5.60 resistor
+ 33K0 resistor
Procedure:
1 During this lab we will define the following measurements as postive:
Current: showing postive direction Voltage: showing positive positions
2. During your prelab, you were asked to calculate the voltage across each resistor and the current
going through each resistor forthe circuit shown in Schematic 1, transfer those values to Table
1. Use positive and negative notation as defined instep 3.

4. Setup the circuit in Schematic 1.
Do not connect Vix, instead place a jumper wire as shown in Schematic 2.
6. With the jumper wie in place but Vi, disconnected, measure Ry and record the measurement in
Table 3
7. Measure the current through each resistor, the voltage across each resistor, and record the
‘measurements in Table 3.

9. With the power supply disconnected put the jumper wire in place, measure R,
10. Connect the power supply as shown in Schematic 3 and take the current and voltage
measurements for each resistor.

12. Connect both power supplies as show in Schematic 1 and take the current and voltage
measurement for each resistor. Be consistent with your measurements and record positive
values as postive and negative values as negative in Table 3.
