1. We determine the peak to peak voltage that can was given by the oscilloscope. Afterwards, we can
determine peak voltage using equation a.
2. Afterwards, we can determine the voltage in RMS by using equation b.
3. Using the VOM we can measure the actual voltage in RMS, thus we can measure the
by using equation c.

The validity of the data was proven with the use of the oscilloscope and by experimenting on the
following circuit that was given.
The probable sources may vary from the equipments used like the oscilloscope, VOM, and
breadboard.
The probable magnitudes of the measured values can be approximately near to the expected
values on the experiment.
The errors could be reduced by practicing proper maintenance of the equipment like the tester
and breadboard by assuring that it is properly working.

1. How valid are the data?
The validity of the data is established because the data confirmed with the expected values and data
gathered is accurate and precise from the simulated values in the electronic workbench software that
simulates different circuits. Moreover, the data are not distant from the measured and expected value of
that certain quantity like the voltage.
2. What are the probable sources of error?
The probable sources of errors are the measuring instrument like the multi-meter, the ac variable
transformer, and the color-coded resistor. The multi-tester can give values that are slightly different from
the actual values being measured like voltage. The ac variable transformer may give voltages that are
different from the indicated value in the supply itself. The color-coded resistor may give resistances that
are not in the 5% or 10% tolerance. It can cause misconception whenever the data gathered were in the
state of error. Furthermore, confidence of the experimenters also affects the system of determining the
values needed.
3. What are the probable magnitudes of the different errors?
The probable magnitudes of the different errors were not that far from the expected output or
simulated values of a certain experimental setup that the group executed. The probable magnitudes of
the different errors can lead to misunderstanding among the experimenters if the different errors where
obtain.
4. How could the errors be reduced?
The errors can be reduced through having enough skill and knowledge with the experiment being held
and also having an accurate measuring instrument so that accurate and precise value can be obtained
which can cause the realistic and expected conclusion to be observed. In addition, reading the
instructions carefully can reduce the magnitude of the errors in the data being gathered.

2. For each value of voltage measured with oscilloscope, compute the average value
4. How do these differences between compare with the differences in RMS values?
The differences between compare with the differences in RMS values is not that far enough
with respect to one another. But there is a more slightly high percent difference in the
voltages under the oscilloscope.
