ABSTRACT
This experiment was led to focus and see all the more about electronic circuits in
henceforth of utilizing MR Board Kit, furthermore learn fundamental standards of hardware,
kind or circuits, prologue to the idea of resistance and how to utilize the shading code to
ascertain the estimation of resistors. The slips in this examinations show up subsequent to the
Multimeter is still simple, so now and again its need a valuable alignment. In consequently, this
analysis will clarify all the more about fundamental examination of electronic circuits.
Key words: circuits, resistance, resistor, capacitor, capacitance, circuit, current, electrons

Experiment 1: Small exercise with the MR Board

A. OBJECTIVES
1. To know how to make a circuit in MR Board
B. TOOLS AND APPARATUS
Tools and apparatus to support this experiment are:
1. 1 set of MR Board
2. Multimeter
C. PROCEDURES
1. Investigate, and check for the amount of resistance between the dots on the MR Board.
If the dots are connected the meter will show zero, or near zero and make a high
pitched beep
2. When the two dots are connected, draw a line between them showing the connection.
Repeat until the connection completely mapped.
3. Create a circuit as what describe in the worksheet of the practicum
D. RESULT AND DISCUSSION

Discussion 1
The resistance of the way is relied upon to increment proportionately with expanding
separation in light of the fact that the cross segment region of the way and resistivity are
steady. The deliberate resistance of the way is not corresponding to the separation, fairly
expanded with next to no augmentations. The Multimeter is suspected to include a steady as a
mistake in light of the fact that it was not legitimately adjusted. To evacuate added substance
lapse the contrast between measured qualities is utilized to figure the genuine resistance. The
evaluated resistance of the way one dab separated is 0.03 0.0125 Ohm.The most noteworthy
lapse in this analysis is on account of the Multimeter is not appropriately balanced and the
Multimeter is simple, so the mistake is exacerbated by the limit of human eye
Other than that, the examination likewise make us now and figure out how to manufacture a
circuit and now the pathway of the present stream rather than the circuit will influence the
vicinity of the light. The light will on if there is current streams, since its pathway is controlled.
That is the reason we can't simply say its allowed to assemble a circuit since it has its own
particular pathway.

discussion 3
Three distinctive sort of circuit is setup on MR Board thus. The circuits are of sort serial,
parallel, and consolidated as in Schematic Diagram 1, 2, and 3. A serial circuit is the point at
which the parts of the circuit are associated along a solitary pathway, bringing about same
current to stream on all segments. While a parallel circuit is the point at which the parts of
the circuit are all joined so that the same voltage is connected on every segment

Experiment 4: Resistance and Color Code

A. OBJECTIVES
1. introduction to the concept of resistance
2. learn how to use the color code to calculate the value of resistors

C. PROCEDURES

1. Begin by selecting 3 different resistors, the resistors can be differentiated by their band
colors
2. Calculate each resistor tolerance by the use of the color table (below)
3. Measure the actual resistance of the resistor with the use of the multi-meter

D . RESULT AND DISCUSSION

Table 4: outlines what was undergone during the experiment. It shows how the tolerance
are obtained by simple calculations according to the color table.

Discussion
Electrical resistance is taking into account the amount of current courses through a wire. As
they are by implication relative, the more present that goes through a wire, the bring down the
resistance of the said wire. Taking into account the analyses completed, it was found that every
resistor was exceptional in a manner that they would have distinctive band hue s. This made it
simple to recognize them furthermore to ascertain their resilience. To peruse a resistor one
must just study the shape, it can be found that one end will swell more than the flip side.
Additionally the end with less lump will have shading groups closer to one another. The most

distant shading band (situated on bigger lump end) will be the resilience of the resistor e.g.
gold; resistance = 5%
