Resistance, R, is defined using R = V/I where V is the potential across a resistor, and I is thecurrent. R is measured in ohms (Ω), where 1 Ω = 1 V/A. The constant you determined in eachequation should be similar to the resistance of each resistor. However, resistors aremanufactured such that their actual value is within a tolerance. For many common resistors, thetolerance is 5% or 10%. Calculate the range of possible values for each resistor. Does the constant in each equation fit within the appropriate range of values for each resistor? Do the resistors follow Ohm’s law? Base your answer on your experimental data.

The figure shows a resistor of resistance R = 6.102 connected to an ideal battery of emf 8 = 15.4 V by means of two copper wires. Each wire has length 21.4 cm and radius 2.20 mm.
