- Measure and record the emf, V\(_{o}\) of the cell provided.
- Connect a circuit as shown in the diagram above.
- With the key, K closed vary the rheostat, Rh to obtain a current 1 = 0.20A. Read and record the corresponding value of the potential difference, V on the voltmeter.
- Evaluate 1\(^{-1}\) and V\(^{-1}\).
- Repeat the procedure for four other values of l = 0.25, 0.30, 0.35 and 0.40 A. Tabulate your readings.
- Plot a graph V\(^{-1}\) on the vertical axis against 1\(^{-1}\) on the horizontal axis.
- Determine the slope, s, of the graph
- Evaluate s\(^{-1}\).
- State two precautions taken to ensure accurate results.
