    it desirable for an ammeter to have a high resistance or low resistance? Why? ➢ Yes‚ it is desirable for an ammeter to have a high resistance or low resistance because the lower the resistance‚ the better the ammeter as it is connected in series and so its resistance will affect the current flow and thereby affect any calculations to be obtained. 2. An ammeter of resistance Ra is connected through a rheostat to a cell of negligible internal resistance. When the rheostat is adjusted

    MAGNETISM‚ SOUND‚ AND LIGHT SERIES CIRCUIT In this unit you’ll begin learning how to analyze circuits. Circuit analysis means looking at a schematic diagram for a circuit and computing the voltage‚ current‚ or power for any component in that circuit. Closely related to the task of circuit analysis is the task of troubleshooting‚ which means figuring out what is wrong in a circuit that is not working correctly. Analyzing and troubleshooting go hand in hand; when a circuit is not working correctly‚

    resistance of a circuit with three parallel resistors with the values below? Gt= G1+G2+G3= 0.5mS+0.25mS+0.75mS= 0.0015 x 10^-3= 1.5mS Rt= 1/Gt= 1/1.5mS= 667Ω 5. Use the reciprocal method to calculate the total resistance of the circuit below. Rt= 1/(1/R1+1/R2)= 1/(1/2.2kΩ + 1/3.3kΩ)= 1320 x 10^3= 1.320kΩ 6. Calculate the total resistance of the circuit above using the product-over-sum rule. Rt= R1(R2)/R1+R2= 2.2kΩ(3.3kΩ)/2.2kΩ+3.3kΩ= 1320 x 10^3= 1.320kΩ 7. Construct the circuit above on

    DC Circuits: Electric Power PHY 114 Lab Report 10/09/2013 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to look at electric power dissipated in a load resistor in a circuit with a real power source‚ which has a finite internal resistance. We discover a surprising result about how to deliver the most power to a device from a source. Consider a simple circuit in which a battery of voltage drives a current through a resistor of resistance. As we have seen‚ the battery is continuously doing
