Linear and Non-Linear Element Experiment no.2 (physic E&M) Linear and Non-Linear Element Experiment no.2 1.Purpose To experimentally determine the relationship between the current and the potential difference of 3 different devices by studying whether the circuit element obeys Ohm’s law. 2.Data Acquisition and Analysis An apparatus was set to measure the current and voltage (in both current direction) of a resistor, a diode and a light bulb. Figure 1. Circuit diagram Where: R = Resistance (circuit element) A = Ammeter V = Voltmeter S = Switch å = Power Supply A current is said to exist whenever there is a net flow of charge through some region. In some materials, the current density is proportional to the electric field. Material that follows this relationship are said to be linear and obeys Ohm’s law. Where: J = Current density ó = Conductivity constant ... Posted by: Alyscia Yellowman Limited version - please login or register to view the entire paper. |
