Abstract
Using Multimeters, I created a parallel circuit in front of each resistor. From these positions I can test the
voltage and current simultaneously throughout the circuit.
Introduction
Once I have completed building the parallel circuit the assignment instructions are to measure the voltage
and current across the entire circuit with no change in the current value.
Conclusion
I was able to verify that Kirchhoff’s law in this lab.

You have 6 PV panels that each have the same I-V curve (ISC = 5.5 A, VOC = 45 V). (a) How many connection configurations that use all 6 panels are possible? Draw each one. (b) Draw the I-V curves for each of the configurations on one graph. You may draw the curves by hand or use a software of your choice. Clearly label each curve. (c) Assume you are to power a 2.5 Ω load with the panels. Knowing that dimmer sunlight reduces the current output of the cells but not the output voltage, what configuration would be best if you were to build it? Explain your answer.

Semiconductor components such as diodes and transistors are easily damaged by the high temperatures of soldering, so care must be taken to protect these components during the soldering process. One way to do this is to use a heat sink to draw heat away from the component without cooling the connection point too much. Heat sinks made out of sheet metal may be temporarily clipped to the component leads, one at a time, to prevent the solder's high temperature from thermally conducting all the way to the component body:
In the absence of a formal heat sink, can you think of any ways to fashion your own ïmpromptu" heat sinks out of commonly available tools and/or objects?

Refer to the figure below in which surge protectors p and q are used to protect an expensive high-definition television. If there is a surge in the voltage, the surge protector reduces it to a safe level. Assume that each surge protector has a 0.94 probability of working correctly when a voltage
surge occurs. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.

a lf the two surge protectors are arranged in series, what is the probability that a voltage surge will not damage the television?
Do not round.)
b. If the two surge protectors are arranged in parallel, what is the probability that a voltage surge will not damage the television?
(Do not round.)
c. Which arrangement should be used for better protection?
O The series arrangment provides better protection because it has a higher probability of protection.
O The parallel arangment provides better protection because it has a lower probability of protection.
