Applications of the 56 ohm sliding rheostat
A 56 ohm rheostat is a versatile middle value for the bench: it limits and varies current through resistors, lamps and meters on typical school supplies, and it can be wired as a potential divider to give a smoothly variable voltage.
- Ohm's law and resistance measurements
- Variable voltage by potential divider connection
- Current control for meters and galvanometers
- Diode and LED characteristic experiments
- General-purpose rheostat for class sets
