I. Course Description

This course provides an in-depth exploration of electrical resistance, a fundamental concept in the field of physics. Students will learn about the properties of resistors, Ohm's Law, circuits, and the factors affecting resistance.

Through a combination of lectures, hands-on experiments, and problem-solving activities, students will develop a strong understanding of electrical resistance and its applications in various practical scenarios.

II. Learning Outcomes

1. Understand the concept of electrical resistance and its significance in electrical circuits.

2. Apply Ohm's Law to calculate resistance, voltage, and current in simple and complex circuits.

3. Analyze the factors that affect resistance including material properties, temperature, and geometric dimensions.

4. Troubleshoot circuit problems related to resistance, voltage drops, and power dissipation.

III. Coursework Overview

1. Lectures: Weekly lectures will cover theoretical concepts related to electrical resistance, including Ohm's Law, series and parallel circuits, and applications of resistors in electronic devices.

2. Laboratory Experiments: Biweekly laboratory sessions will provide hands-on experience with measuring resistance, constructing circuits, and analyzing circuit behavior. Students will use multimeters, breadboards, and other laboratory equipment to perform experiments and verify theoretical principles.

3. Problem-Solving Exercises: Assignments and quizzes will include problem-solving exercises that require students to apply mathematical formulas and concepts related to electrical resistance. These exercises will reinforce learning objectives and develop critical thinking skills.

4. Simulations and Demonstrations: Computer simulations and classroom demonstrations will supplement lectures and laboratory activities, providing visualizations of electrical circuits and phenomena related to resistance.

5. Projects: Students will have the opportunity to work on individual or group projects related to electrical resistance, such as designing a circuit, conducting a research study, or presenting on a specific application of resistors.
