Experiment number (5) - Problem:
A student wants to find the the internal resistance of the power supply. Based on the relationship between voltage and current through an ohmic conductor and using the tools in front of you, help the student to find the internal resistance of the supply. Planning & Initiating:
(2 marks)
1.Design a circuit diagram for the experiment to help the student solve the problem.
2.Predict what will happen to the slope of a graph of (V against I) if a power supply of double internal resistance was
