If we measure the voltage around the resistor:
Figure 15. The measured voltage in this figure is 3.29 V DC.
If we calculate the new values:
3.28 𝑉
508 Ω
= 6. 45 𝑚𝐴
But in reality, it will be less than 6.45 mA because of the resistance of the multimeter
itself:
Fig. 16. The measured current in this figure is 6 mA
But indeed, we can count on our calculation “ ” because 5.88
3 𝑉 / 510 Ω = 5. 88 𝑚𝐴
mA is almost equal to 6 mA.
