An ammeter gives full deflection when a current of 2 amp . Flows through it. The resistance of ammeter is 12 ohms . If the same ammeter is to be used for measuring a maximum current of 5 amp , then the ammeter must be connected with a resistance of

Assertion : In the circuit shown in figure ammeter and voltmeter are non-ideal. Why positions of ammeter and voltmeter are changed, reading of ammeter will increase while of voltmeter will decrease. Reason : Resistance of an ideal ammeter is zero while that of an ideal voltmeter is infinite.

A voltmeter and an ammeter are joined, in series to an ideal cell, giving reading V and A respectively. If a resistance equal to the resistance of the ammeter is now joined in parallel to the ammeter then :

A dc ammeter and a hot wire ammeter are connected to a circuit in series. When a direct current is passed through circuit, the dc ammeter shows 6 A. When ac current flows through circuit, the ac ammeter shows 8A. What will be reading of each ammeter if dc and ac current flow simulataneously through the circuit?
