Question

Question 1 (1 point) 2 1 The figure shows a circuit diagram with a resistor (R) connected to a power supply with adjustable voltage (battery symbol with arrow) the numbered circles indicate probes. For a measurement of the current through the resistor and the voltage across the resistor, Probe 1 and 2 are voltmeters. Two options will work: probe 1 as an ammeter and probe 2 as a voltmeter, or probe 2 as an ammeter and probe 1 as a voltmeter. Probe 1 is a voltmeter and probe 2 is an ammeter Probe 1 is an ammeter and probe 2 is a voltmeter. Save

Explanation / Answer

Probe 1 is an ammeter and probe 2 is a voltmeter

Ammeter is joined in series to measure the current in the circuit, voltmeter should be joined in parallel to measure the voltage in the circuit
