Voltage in resistors connected in parallel
The effect of adding resistors in parallel on the voltage.
Part of the course: Electricity & Circuits I — DC Fundamentals
Mission
The effect of adding resistors in parallel on the voltage.
Variables
What you change
- Battery Voltage
What you measure
- Voltage Drop
What you keep constant
- Wire length
- Wire cross section
- Temperature of wire
Equations
V_1 = Voltage drop on first resistor (V)
V_2 = Voltage drop on second resistor (V)
V_3 = Voltage drop on third resistor (V)
V_Bat ≈ 6 Volts
R_1, R_2, R_3 = Resistors (ohm)
V_1=V_2=V_3=V_Bat
What You'll Need
- Breadboard 400 Tie Point
- Arduino Uno
- I2C LCD
- 25V Voltage Sensor Module
- Resistor
- 6V Battery Pack, 4x AA
