1. List apparatus in this experiment.
2. 2. What does each symbol represent?  

3. A voltmeter is a device to measure the ______ across a resistor and an ammeter is a device to measure the______ through the resistor.

4. In Fig 1 the voltmeter is connected in _____with the resistor and the ammeter and the variable DC power source are connected in ______ with the resistor.

5. State Ohm's law in words.

6. Give the equation of Ohm's law. Explain what each variable represents and give proper SI units for each variable.
