Q24 of 31 Page 252

Draw a circuit diagram for a circuit in which two resistors A and B are connected in series with a battery and a voltmeter is connected to measure the potential difference across the resistor A.


In the above circuit diagram there are two resistors A and B which are connected in series. To resistor A voltmeter is connected in parallel. A battery and a key is also connected. When key is switched on current will flow across resistors. If key is off no current flows across both the resistors.

Measure the resistance of a bulb (filament) in open circuit with a multi-meter. Make a circuit with elements such as a bulb, a battery of 12V and key in series. Close the key. Then again measure the resistance of the same bulb (filament) every 30 seconds. Record the observations in a proper table. What can you conclude from the above results?
