1. Construct the circuit of problem 1 in the Assignment with MultiSIM.
2. Take screenshots to confirm your calculations for part 1 a through d of the Assignment. The screenshots should show the settings of the Agilent signal generator, the waveforms of the current and voltages, and the period of the voltage source found using the Tektronix Oscilloscope.
3. Complete the following chart by adjusting the values of frequency and R₁:

   Frequency = 100 Hz	Period of VT =
   	VR1 =
   	VR2 =
   Frequency = 1000 Hz	Period of VT =
   	VR1 =
   	VR2 =
   Frequency = 10 KHz	Period of VT =
   	VR1 =
   	VR2 =
   Frequency = 100 KHz	Period of VT =
   	VR1 =
   	VR2 =
   R1 = 5 kohms	RT =
   	IT =
   	VR1 =
   	VR2 =
   R1 = 10 kohms	RT =
   	IT =
   	VR1 =
   	VR2 =
   R1 = 15 kohms	RT =
   	IT =
   	VR1 =
   	VR2 =
   R1 = 25 kohms	RT =
   	IT =
   	VR1 =
   	VR2 =

4. Answer the following:
5. Describe the relationship between the frequency and the period of a sinusoidal signal.
6. Describe the effect of increasing R₁ on the total resistance of the circuit.
7. Describe the effect of RT on the value of I_T for a given value of V_T.
8. For a purely resistive circuit, what effect does frequency have on the values of R_T and I_T?
