Prelab to Resistance Lab

Prelab Due at the beginning of your lab period (February 29/March 1)
Lab Handout is available outside my office door.

1) Read the lab handout
2) What is resistance?  Read your textbook (or some other text), and come up with a definition, in your own words,
that you understand enough so that you could explain it to someone else. 
3) You measure the current in a circuit comprising a single resistor and a 1.5 Volt battery to be .0045 amps.  What is the color code for that resistor?
