Part 8: Parallel Circuit with Two Resistors, Designed in Terms of Current Through Electric Circuit Elements
20. Design a circuit that has two resistors connected in parallel. Choose resistors
that will each provide 5 W of power from a 20 V power source.
I
Use the instructions provided in step 1 to build the circuit.
21. Calculate the expected current through and voltage drop across each resistor,
and record the values in data table 8.
22. Using the ammeter and voltmeter, determine the current through and voltage
drop across each resistor. Record the values in data table 8.
