Choose resistances (two different pairs)
that will allow you to answer the following questions.
If
is twice as big as
, what voltages will appear
across each? Calculate the answer and see if you are right. If
is
1/10 the value of
, what then? Again, perform the calculation
and see if you are correct. Compare theory and experiment. For definiteness,
set your power supply on stun, I mean, 10.
