Series-Parallel Circuits Voltage Distribution in Series-Parallel Circuits Name: M Date: R 1 ks DMM VVPS (de) CIS R 10 ks2 R5 10 * Use best range to measure currents between 0-1 mA FIGURE 23-1 R 12 R 10 k PROCEDURE 1. Connect the initial circuit as shown in Figure 23-1. 2. Assume an PROJECT 23 Rez= R + R 224 REAG Regi = 10kr 1122kr = R=R+ Poy + R 72 PROJECT PURPOSE To observe voltage distribution characteristics in a series- parallel circuit, using measurements and observations. To prove that in a series-parallel circuit, a component's location, as well as its value, affects its voltage drop. PARTS NEEDED Resistors 1k 10 (3) 17.9k.^ 12 I7 of 0.5 mA and calculate all the circuit voltages. Note results of calculations. NOTE Solve for the R of branch R in parallel with branch (R3 + R) so you can use the current-divider rule(s) to find currents through these particular branch resistors. This will then allow you to find their individual resistor voltage drop
