In this lab assignment, you will work in a team of two members and complete the tasks
given below:
1. Read the safety and introduction information carefully and thoroughly from the lab manual.
Note: Failure to follow safety precautions and/or negligence may result in grade reduction.
2. Assume that a basic meter has Is = 25mA and internal resistance of Rm-3 2. For this meter,

a. Use the circuit of Fig. 1 with a 2.5V voltage supply to measure current and the
voltage across the resistance. Use the voltmeter that you constructed in step 3 (20V
full-scale). Record both these current and voltage values. Using these current and
voltage values to determine the resistance.
b. Now, remove only the voltmeter from this circuit and measure the current. Use this
value of current and the voltage recording from step a. above to determine the
resistance
c. Compare the resistance values obtained in the above steps with the true resistance
value. Report the percentage error in each case
