Question
**Experiment 6: Series-Parallel Circuit Analysis**

1. **Instructions:**
   - Connect the network shown in Figure 6.7 after measuring and recording the actual value of each resistor used.

2. **Figure 6.7 Explanation:**
   - The diagram presents an experimental series-parallel circuit.
   - Components include:
     - \( R_1 = 220 \, \Omega \) (measured as 216 \(\Omega\))
     - \( R_2 = 470 \, \Omega \) (measured as 463 \(\Omega\))
     - \( R_3 = 470 \, \Omega \) (measured as 463 \(\Omega\))
     - \( R_4 = 330 \, \Omega \) (measured as 321 \(\Omega\))
     - \( R_5 = 100 \, \Omega \) (measured as 101 \(\Omega\))
   - The circuit is powered by a supply connected to point A.

3. **Steps:**
   - Set the power supply voltage to 10 V.
   - Measure and record in Table 6.2 the current through and the voltage across each component, including the power supply.
   - Ensure proper polarity and turn off power before relocating the ammeter.

4. **Table 6.2: Measurements**

\[
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
\text{Component} & \text{Measured Resistance (\(\Omega\))} & \text{Current (A)} & \text{Voltage (V)} \\
\hline
\text{Power supply} & -- & 12.74 & 10 \\
R_1 & 216 & 7.88 & 5.67 \\
R_2 & 463 & 8.97 & 3.02 \\
R_3 & 463 & 8.97 & 3.02 \\
R_4 & 321 & 8.82 & 4.31 \\
R_5 & 101 & 12.46 & 1.29 \\
\hline
\end{array}
\]

These measurements and data collection will help in understanding the properties of series-parallel circuits and the behavior of electrical components within them.

**Note:** Use the actual (measured) values of resistance in all calculations.

1. Solve the network of Figure 6.7 and compare your results with the measured values recorded in Table 6.2.

2. Using the measured values recorded in Table 6.2, verify Kirchhoff's current law at junctions A, B, and C in Figure 6.7. Also verify Kirchhoff's voltage law around each closed loop in Figure 6.7. (There are four such loops in this figure.)

3. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the circuit of Figure 6.8 and Table 6.3.
