In measuring a voltage, a voltmeter uses some current from the circuit. Consequently, the voltage measured is only an approximation to the voltage present when the voltmeter is not connected. Consider a circuit consisting of two $1550-\Omega$ resistors connected in series across a $60.0-\mathrm{V}$ battery. (a) Find the voltage across one of the resistors. (b) A voltmeter has a full-scale voltage of $60.0 \mathrm{~V}$ and uses a galvanometer with a full-scale deflection of $5.00 \mathrm{~mA}$. Determine the voltage that this voltmeter registers when it is connected across the resistor used in part (a).
A voltmeter and an ammeter are used to respectively monitor the voltage across and the current through a resistor connected to an AC source. If the resistor has a value of 12.50 Ω and the ammeter reads 8.12 A, determine the following: - The voltage (in V) across the resistor. - The peak voltage (in V) of the source. - The maximum current (in A) in the resistor. - The average power (in W) delivered to the resistor.
