Learning Insights on Experiment 8
This experiment is the best so far. I have learned difference on resistors between series and
parallel circuit. In a series circuit, the output current of the first resistor flows into the input of the second
resistor, resulting in the same current in both resistors. In a parallel circuit, all of the resistor leads on one
side of the resistors are linked together, as are all of the resistor leads on the other side.
I have also learned what to do if I need a 100-ohm resistor. But I am temporarily out of resistors
of this value. All I have for instance is a 500-ohm resistor and two 250-ohm resistors. I can use the 500ohm resistor and two 250-ohm resistor to connect them in a parallel circuit
