To design a multi-range voltmeter/ammeter using a D’Arsonval meter with a full-scale deflection of 1mA and an internal resistance of 500Ω, one must apply Ohm's Law to determine the necessary resistors for each range. The voltmeter should cover specified voltage ranges from 0-1V to 0-500V, while the ammeter should range from 0-10mA to 0-100A. The discussion suggests that the design process involves calculating series and shunt resistances for each range. The inquiry is perceived as a homework question, indicating a need for structured guidance. Understanding the principles of Ohm's Law is essential for successful design.

Hi there..
is anybody here know how to design one multi range voltmeter/ammeter by using a D’Arsonval meter with a full-scale deflection rating of 1mA and the internal coil resistance of 500Ω?
The measurement range of the voltmeter should cover the ranges as shown below.
Voltmeter Ammeter
1) 0-1V 0-10mA
2) 0-5V 0-50mA
3) 0-10V 0-100mA
4) 0-20V 0-1A
5) 0-50V 0-10A
6) 0-100V 0-20A
7) 0-200V 0-50A
8) 0-300V 0-60A
9) 0-400V 0-80A
10) 0-500V 0-100A
Can u tell me the step homework to do n any ref of this...
thx 4 helping... i really appreciate it...

It's all about ohms law. Nothing more. This sounds like homework BTW.
 

Thread 'What mathematics software should engineering students use?'

What mathematics software should engineering students use? Is it correct that much of the engineering industry relies on MATLAB, making it the tool many graduates will encounter in professional settings? How does SageMath compare? It is a free package that supports both numerical and symbolic computation and can be installed on various platforms. Could it become more widely used because it is freely available? I am an academic who has taught engineering mathematics, and taught the...
