Name of the Experiment: Verification of KVL
OBJECTIVE:
This experiment is intended to verify Kirchhoffs voltage law (KVL) with the help of series
circuits and hence derive equivalent resistance both experimentally and analytically
THEORY:
KVL states that around any closed circuit the algebraic sum of the voltage rises equals the
algebraic sum of the voltage drops
APPARATUS:
!ne "# Voltmeter ($ % &$$V)
!ne "# 'mmeter ($ % (')
Three )heostats each rated at least * amps+ ,$ ohms
!ne -.-T switches
!ne multimeter
PROCEDURE :
#onnect three rheostats )/+ ), and )& in series through a -.-T switch to a "# power supply
as shown in fig /


0ig /
-et the rheostats at their maximum value and ta1e readings of V/+ V,+ V&+ Vs using a voltmeter
and 2 using an ammeter Vary the rheostats in such a way that ammeter reading does not
exceed the current rating of any of the rheostats Ta1e at least another , sets of reading and
enter it in the table
Verify KVL 0ind total resistance )T from the mar1ed ohmic value of the rheostat #ompare
