A.
Procedure – For task 1, the procedure was fairly straightforward. After finding
three resistors with different color bands and making sure the NI ELVIS was set
up properly, we simply placed each end of one resistor in two separate breadboard
nodes. Then, using the NI ELVIS DMM, we measured and recorded the resistance
values of each individual resistor. After recording each value, we repeated the
procedure with the HP DMM instead of the ELVIS. The procedure was almost
identical, and the values were recorded once again. For task 2, we were required
to use the HP DMM, NI ELVIS DMM, and a 9-volt battery. After connecting the
battery to the breadboard, we measured the voltage by connecting the HP DMM
probes in parallel with the battery. We did this same exact thing using the NI
ELVIS DMM, as well. Both voltage values for the battery were recorded. For task
3, the oscilloscope and the function generator were used. Using probes, we
connected the oscilloscope to the output of the function generator. After setting
