The resistance of an ammeter is 13Ω and its scale is graduated for a current upto 100 amps. After an additional shunt has been connected to this ammeter it becomes possible to measure currents upto […]
Three resistances P,Q,R each of 2Ω and an unknown resistances S form the four arms of a Wheatstone bridge circuit. When a resistance of 6Ω is connected in parallel to S the bridge gets balanced. […]
Which one of the following electrical meter has the smallest resistance?
Options
(a) Ammeter (b) Milliammeter (c) Galvanometer (d) Voltmeter
Correct Answer:
Ammeter
Explanation:
A milliammeter will have greater resistance than ammeter because,
1. […]
