Figure 8: Circuit with two current probes, one measuring current from the positive terminal <strong>of</strong><br />
the battery, the other measuring current into the negative terminal <strong>of</strong> the battery. Note how<br />
the + and − terminals <strong>of</strong> the current probes are connected,<br />
Prediction 1.2 The table below is a prediction table for each <strong>of</strong> the four models. Before<br />
making any measurements fill in Table 1 to show how the readings <strong>of</strong> current probe 1 and<br />
current probe 2 in the circuit in Fig. 8 would compare with each other for each <strong>of</strong> the<br />
current models described in Fig. 6.<br />
