This table shows what happens when we put a resistor in series with a device (as shown in the diagram).
| Device | R = 10 Ohm | R = 100 Ohm | R = 1000 Ohm | R = 10000 Ohm |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LED
|

| Buzzer
|

| Motor

| Light bulb

Interpret the table: how much current does each device need? (Note that the resistor limits the current to 3V/R).
By comparing this table to the one from the previous activity, what can you say about the resistances of the objects you studied there?
