Experiment 1: Taste the Power
This requires you to physically put the probs of you multimeter on your tongue (a little intimidating I know!). You don't get electricuted, the only minor inconvience this will cause you is the explaination you must make when someone finds you sticking multimeter probs to your tongue. Also make sure the multimeter is switched to 200K (or anything higher than 100K).
RESULTS FOR ME: 49 K
My tounge has a 49K ohm resistance, cool.
The next step...wetting my arm, didn't work for me. Or, at least nothing constant (maybe you other imfs out there know how this works?). At one point it produced 45 K ohm before quickly turning back to 0.
Other tests:
Tea: 196 K ohm
Spoon: 10 K ohm (although the multimeter has a hard time with this one)
Ceramic Cup: 0 K ohm
$1 Sacagawea Coin: 34(?) K ohm (another item the multimeter cannot measure properly)
Simple test but definitely got me friendly with my multimeter.
