In this exercise, I needed to be able to identify the kind of resistors used in our project. To be able to read the level of ohms a resistor carries is by identifying the colors and reading them correctly. The first and second colors indicated are numerical digits and the third line is the factor of 10 in which the two digits are multiplied by. At the end of the reading, there is a faintly gold strip on the right to indicate that i was reading it in the right order of coloring. In this one, there is a red, red, red, resistor. First red is 2, second is 2, and third color is a multiplier of 100, thus producing 2200 ohms of resistance.
In addition to learning about resistors, multimeters are a great way to test conductivities, resistance as well as the amount of volts a particular hardware or power source produces. In these 3 pictures with the multimeter, I demonstrated how one would use a multimeter to find out how much power or ohms a hardware may contain.
In this picture, I used the 5 volt power supply we made earlier in the winter semester and demonstrated how to use a breadboard and light up the LED using a small resistor.
