PRACTICAL # 02 Verification of Current Divider Rule By: Engr. Irshad Raheem Memon

OBJECTIVE � Objective of this practical is to understand verify that current is divided in a parallel resistive circuit

Some Concept of Current Divider Rule � Current divider rule states that “Current is divided in a parallel circuit, whereas sum of all currents through all resistors is equal to total current” �Current remain same in series circuit but it used to change in parallel circuit

Formula to Find Current at required Resistor

Coming Towards Objective Now

REQUIRED APPARATUS �Multism Software �Resistors �Bread board �Multimeter � DC voltage source � Connecting wire etc.

PROCEDURE � Connect two resistors “R 1” and “R 2” in parallel and then connect positive terminal of DC voltage source “Vs” with terminal “a” of R 1 & R 2 and negative terminal of DC voltage source “Vs” with terminal “b” of R 1 & R 2 as shown in figure 01. Find out current through R 1 and R 2 with the help of multimeter as well as formula
