Ok, so now you can remove the ammeter from the circuit. It won't make any difference.Peter R said:
Still have no clue man, a little more hint?Tom.G said:
Ehh please be more specific man, thanks for the replycnh1995 said:
Have you studied series and parallel connections? How are R1 and R2 connected?Peter R said:
Yea they are in series with the same current but shared voltage.cnh1995 said:
An ammeter reading is a measure of the electric current passing through a circuit. It is typically expressed in units of amperes (A) and is used to determine the amount of current flowing through a specific point in a circuit.
An ammeter reading measures the amount of current flowing through a circuit, while potential difference measures the difference in electric potential between two points in a circuit. In simpler terms, an ammeter reading tells us how much current is flowing, while potential difference tells us the amount of energy being transferred in the circuit.
An ammeter is connected in series with the circuit, which means that it becomes part of the circuit itself. This affects the circuit by adding resistance, which can slightly alter the current flow and potential difference in the circuit.
The accuracy of an ammeter reading can be affected by a number of factors, including the resistance of the ammeter itself, the resistance of the circuit, and the placement of the ammeter in the circuit. Other factors such as temperature and external electromagnetic fields can also affect the accuracy of the reading.
In order to calculate the potential difference in a circuit, you will need to know the resistance of the circuit and the ammeter reading. You can then use Ohm's Law (V=IR) to calculate the potential difference, where V is the potential difference, I is the ammeter reading, and R is the resistance of the circuit.
