100%
Hello, based on the information in the pictures. Can you please help me solve the last two questions
**Data Table I: One Resistor**

- **Color Code:** Yellow, Orange, Yellow, Gold
- **\( R_1 = 430,000 \, \Omega, \, 5\% \)**

| Measured Voltage [V] | Measured Current [A] | Calculated Resistance* [Ω] | Resistance Value from Color Code [Ω] |
|----------------------|----------------------|---------------------------|--------------------------------------|
| 2.92 V               | 1.62 A               | 1.8 Ω                     | 430,000                              |

\( R = \frac{2.92}{1.62} = 1.8 \, \Omega \)

1. **Use Ohm's Law**: \( R = V/I \) to calculate resistance after you measured voltage and current.

   \[
   R_2 = \frac{2.92}{1.62} = 1.8 \, \Omega
   \]

2. **Determine your % error** between the value of the resistor given by the color code (consider as standard value) and your calculated value (from 1).

   \[
   \left(\frac{1.8 - 430000}{430000}\right) \times 100 = -99\%
   \]

**Data Table II: Resistors in Series**

- Record the color code for the 2 resistors used:

  - **Color Code:** Yellow, Orange, Yellow, Gold 
    - \( R_1 = 430,000 \, \Omega, \, 5\% \)
  
  - **Color Code:** Brown, Black, Red, Gold 
    - \( R_2 = 1000 \, \Omega, \, 5\% \)

| Measured Voltage [V] | Measured Current [A] | Resistance [Ω] calculated using Ohm's Law | Resistance Value from Color Code [Ω] |
|----------------------|----------------------|------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|
| \( V_1 = 2.79 \, V \) | \( I_1 = 2.80 \, A \) | \( R_1 = 0.99 \, \Omega \)                 | \( R_1 = 430000 \, \Omega \)           |
| \( V_2 = 2.81 \, V \) |

# Data Table III: Resistors in Parallel

Record the color code for the 2 resistors used:

| Measured Voltage [V] | Measured Current [A] | Calculated Resistance* [Ω] | Resistance Value from Color Code [Ω] |
|----------------------|----------------------|----------------------------|-------------------------------------|
| \( V_1 = 2.79 \)     | \( I_1 = 2.05 A \)   | \( R_1 = 1.36 \, Ω \)      | \( R_1 = 430,000 \, Ω \)            |
| \( V_2 = 2.8 \)      | \( I_2 = 2.12 A \)   | \( R_2 = 1.32 \, Ω \)      | \( R_2 = 1,000 \, Ω \)              |
| \( V_{total} = 5.59 \) | \( I_{total} = 4.17 A \) | \( R_{total} = 2.68 \, Ω \)  | \( R_c \, (calculated \, at \, 5\%) = 431,000 \, Ω \) |

**Use Ohm’s Law: \( R = V/I \)**

- **Calculate the Resistances Using Ohm’s Law:**
  - \( R_1 = \frac{V_1}{I_1} = \frac{2.79}{2.05} = 1.36 \, Ω \)
  - \( R_2 = \frac{V_2}{I_2} = \frac{2.8}{2.12} = 1.32 \, Ω \)

- **Calculate the Equivalent Resistance Using the Parallel Resistance Formula:**

  \[
  \frac{1}{R_e} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2}
  \]

  Consider the values of resistance provided by the color code.

  \[
  R_e = \frac{430,000 \cdot 1,000}{430,000 + 1,000} = \text{calculated value}
  \]

- **Determine Your % Error Between the Two Values Found for the Total Resistance:**

  \[
  \text{Error} = \left( \
