Question
If an ammeter is to be used in place of a voltmeter, then we must connect with the ammeter a
Options
A.low resistance in parallel
B.high resistance in parallel
C.high resistance in series
D.low resistance in series
Solution
A voltmeter is a high resistance galvanometer and is connected in parallel to circuit and ammeter is a low resistance galvanometer so if we connect high resistance in series with ammeter its resistance will be much high.
