- True or False? A lab scope is a visual voltmeter that shows voltage over a period of time.arrow_forwardWhile measuring resistance: Technician A uses an ohmmeter to measure resistance of a component before disconnecting it from the circuit. Technician B uses a voltmeter to measure voltage drop. A circuit with very low resistance will drop zero or very little voltage. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile discussing voltage Technician A says that voltage is the force developed by the attraction of the electrons to protons. Technician B says that the force developed by the attraction of electrons to protons is called electromotive force and it is measured in volts. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
