Week 1

Question: What is capacitance and inductance in terms of resistor.

Question: Voltage drop - how does the concept relate to Ohm’s law, does it mean a higher resistance ‘draws’ more voltage?

Measuring resistance across a potentiometer:

Pin 1 & 3

Starting point

At the other extreme

At the other extreme

Question: Why does the multimeter show the same resistance at both ends - potentiometer’s resistance is supposed to to vary

Answer: The reading here is measuring the extreme/max resistance of the potentiomenter - ~10k in this case.

Solution: Figure out the right pins and check again

Resistor type: B10K

Pin 1 & 2:

Knob adjusted halfway
