How do your turn on the LED?
Why does the LED light up when you connect it based on the circuit diagram?
What happened when you replaced the 10k resistor?
How does the value of the resistor affect the brightness of the LED?
Is there any difference between the actual and computed values?
Documentation (Insert pictures while performing experiment)
Activity 2. The Brightness Control
Isolate the potentiometer:
1. Measure the resistance of the potentiometer by connecting the black probe of your
multimeter to the middle terminal of the potentiometer, turn the potentiometer to the left,
and connect the red probe to the left terminal, then right terminal. Gradually turn the dial
and record each of the resistance reading.
Dial Position
Maximum Left
Left – Middle Reading
Right – Middle Reading
Maximum Right
Proceed to fixing your setup according to the given diagram:
While switched on, using your multimeter tabulate the Voltage across the LED, and the
Resistance value of the potentiometer, turn the dial at random positions. Repeat until you
complete the table below.
Compute the supposed resistance value of the potentiometer for each dial position you chose.

resistor to the left? To the right?
(For Activity 3-6, tabulate the data just like the previous activities and compare the actual vs
computed values. The final format should be like the previous activities).
