Experimental Setup: Draw/describe how you will make voltage/current measurements

Question

Experimental Setup: Draw/describe how you will make voltage/current measurements in the lab using your orange multimeter (same device as last week).

1. Draw/describe how you will measure the voltage drop across a lightbulb in a circuit. Show/explain where you will put the black lead and the red lead from your orange multimeter and what setting you will have the device on to take this reading.

2. Draw/describe how you will measure the current through a lightbulb in a circuit. Show/explain where you will put the black lead and the red lead from your orange multimeter and what setting you will have the device on to take this reading. (Note: you will have to modify your circuit to make the current measurement because you need put the multimeter in the same wire path as the element through which you want to measure the current.)
