What causes a electric current in a electric circuit?
Voltage causes current to flow in an electric circuit.
What happens to an electric current when a circuit is closed?
If the circuit is closed the electric current will be closed as well.
What is the continuous loop that an electric current flows through?
DC = direct current.
When wires are connected to the terminals of a battery. what causes electric current in the circuit?
The resistance of the load is what causes an electric current to flow in a circuit.
What is the movement of electric charges in a closed circuit?
Electric Current
What instrument measures current in an electric circuit?
That's the purpose of the "ammeter".
What is a ammet?
An instrument that measures electric current in amperes.
What are the function of ammeter?
The purpose of an ammeter is to sense and display the magnitude of the current flowing through it. When connected in series with a branch of an electrical circuit, the meter displays the magnitude (and direction) of the current in that path ... which you can't otherwise tell just by looking at the circuit.
What is the 'job' of an ammeter in a circuit?
It measures the current.
What measures the flowing in a circuit?
The flow in a circuit is called the electric current and it is measured by voltages. The number of volts that are present in the charge will determine the strength of the electric current.
What is ammeter used for?
An ammeter measures the electrical current in something. A digital one is calibrated to display through the shunt and convert information from the analog model.
What quantity measures the galvonometer?
A galvanometer is a type of ammeter: An instrument for detecting and measuring electric current.
The instrument used to increase or decrease the passage of electric current through a circuit is called?
try RHEOSTAT
What causes a electric current in a electric circuit?
Voltage causes current to flow in an electric circuit.
What causes a current in an electric circuit?
Voltage causes current to flow in an electric circuit.
What are the advantages of ammeter?
A wattmeter is an instrument that measures the electric power of a circuit, in watts. A watt meter is installed in almost every house, and is used to determine a family's monthly electric bill.
Who invented the ammeters?
An ammeter is a measuring instrument used to measure the electric current in a circuit and was invented by Hans Christian Ørsted
