Plusivo DM501D - Kirchhoffs Laws Explained

The measured resistance in this figure is 550.2 Ω
Note:
Disconnect the battery when measuring the resistance, otherwise, the multimeter may be damaged.
The measured voltage in this figure is 3.085 V DC.
So if we calculate the new values:
(3.085 𝑉)
2
550.2 Ω
= 17. 3 𝑚𝑊
We can count on our calculation “ ” because the
(3 𝑉)
2
510 Ω
= 0. 0176 𝑊 = 17. 6 𝑚𝑊
theoretical value of 17.6 mW is near the value of 17.3 mW.
