The voltmeter V in the figure. Reads `117V` and the ammeter A reads `0*13A`. The resistance of the voltmeter is `9000Omega` and the resistance of ammeter is `0*015Omega`. Compute (i) the resistance R, (ii) the power input to R.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
(i) `1000Omega` (ii) `13*689watt`

Current through voltmeter, `I_1=(117)/(9000)=0*013A`
Current through R, `I_2=I-I_1`
`=0.13-0.013=0.117A`
(i) Resistance, `R=(117)/(0*117)=1000Omega`
(ii) Power input to `R=I_2^2R`
`=(0*117)^2xx1000=13*689` watt

The ammeter A reads 2A and the voltmeter V reads 20V, the value of resistance R is (Assuming finite resistance's of ammeter and voltmeter)

Resistance value of an unknown resistor is calculated using the formula R=V/I where V and I be the readings of the voltmeter and the ammeter respectively. Consider the circuits below. The internal resistances of the voltmeter and the ammeter ( R_v and R_G respectively ) are finite and non zero. Let R_v and R_G be the calculated values in the two cases A and B respectively. If the resistance of voltmeter is R_v=1kOmega and that of ammeter is R_G=1Omega the magnitude of the percentage error in the measurement of R (the value of R is nearly 10Omega ) is:
