Question

Please answer question 3 and question 4 from parallel circuit. It is DS circuit lab from college physics class and this is calculus based college physics.

Please answer in detail

Thank you

1 Series Circuits 1. Put two resistors and two 1.5 V batteries in series with each other. Record both resistances 2. Use an ammeter to measure the current flowing through each of the following parts of the circuit ve An ammeter must be connected in series with the rest of the circuit, so you will have to rearrange the s wires a bit for each measurement. (e) Betwen battery 1 and R: ua (b) Between Ri and R CHLA (e) Between R, and battery 2:2 4SA (d) Between battery 1 and battery 2:34ud 3. Compare the four currents you measured. Would you say that the current in the cicuit increased, decreased, or remained the same as it flowed from the positive side of the battery, through the resistors and back to the battery? 4. Use an voltmeter to measure the voltage across each of the following circuit elements. An voltmeter must be connected in parallel with each circuit element. This can be done without rewiring the circuit by simply touching the wires from the two ports of the voltmeter to each side the circuit element If the voltmeter needle deflects to the left of zero, then swap the wires on either side of the circuit element. Record the voltage as positive if increases in the di it decreases in the direction of positive currentVols-m of positive current and negative if (a) Across battery 1:SS m (b) Across battery 2: 14h8 m (c) Across R: (d) Across R,:50m increased, decreased, or remained the same from the positive side of battery 1 to the negative side of battery 2? 5. Compare the four voltages you measured. Would you say that the potential at each point in the cicuit

Explanation / Answer

3. The current is not split evenly due to different resistor values. The current entering a junction is equal to the current leaving the junction. This can be proved by revoking Kirchoff's laws of junctions.

I think you meant question 5. Here it goes:

If it is a parallel connection of resistors, the voltage does not split but is rather same for both the resistors as is evident from the data. I hope this answers your question.

PS: cannot ascertain what resistor q junction is, maybe a typo.
