Study Notes
- This physics lab activity focuses on resistor identification using digital multimeters, resistance measurement, and resistor color codes.
- The goal is to familiarize students with these tools and techniques
- Upon completion, students should be able to measure resistor values and identify them using color codes with a multimeter.
- Electrical circuits use various resistor networks to distribute and limit electric current
- Students learn to identify and measure resistor values for effective circuit design and troubleshooting
Resistors
- Resistors have three to five colored bands, each representing a different value
- Decoding these bands determines the resistor's value and accuracy.
- The first two or three bands indicate significant digits based on resistor accuracy, with high-accuracy resistors using three bands
- Standard accuracy resistors use two bands
- The next band acts as a multiplier for the significant digits
- The last band indicates tolerance, which is a percentage determining the expected resistance range
- Five percent tolerance resistors use a three band code
Resistor Tolerance
- Tolerance is calculated using the formulas:
- R₁ = R(1 + T/100) and R₂ = R(1 - T/100),
- Where R₁ is the maximum resistance, R₂ is the minimum resistance, R is the marked value, and T is the tolerance percentage
Multimeters & Measuring Resistance
- A multimeter can also identify resistor values by measuring its resistance
- The multimeter passes a current through the resistor and measures the voltage drop to calculate resistance using Ohm's Law
- Multimeters measure the voltage drop across the resistor and apply Ohm's Law to find the resistance
