An ammeter with resistance 'RA' is connected in series with resistance R=100 ohms. The applied voltage V= 200V. Determine the error (E) & percentage error (%E) in the current measurement due to loading effect of ammeter when- (i) RA =0.2(Ohms) (ii) RA = 20.0 (Ohms).
B) An ammeter with resistance ‘RA’ is connected in series with resistance R=101 ohms. The applied voltage V= 201.2V. Determine the error (E) & percentage error (%E) in the current measurement due to loading effect of ammeter when- (i) RA =0.2Ω
In the given circuit, R1= 6.00 ohms, R2 = 3.00 ohms and R3 = 5.00 ohms. The battery has negligible internal resistance. The current I1 through R1 is 4.00 A. Calculate the EMF of the battery in the circuit in volts.
