  1. Measure and record the emf, V\(_{o}\) of the cell provided.
  2. Connect a circuit as shown in the diagram above.
  3. 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.
  4. Evaluate 1\(^{-1}\) and V\(^{-1}\).
  5. Repeat the procedure for four other values of l = 0.25, 0.30, 0.35 and 0.40 A. Tabulate your readings.
  6. Plot a graph V\(^{-1}\) on the vertical axis against 1\(^{-1}\) on the horizontal axis.
  7. Determine the slope, s, of the graph
  8. Evaluate s\(^{-1}\).
  9. State two precautions taken to ensure accurate results.
