The purpose of a voltmeter is to measure the number of volts contained in a wire.
If the number of volts is too high then the wire can't hold in all of the volts and
you get shocked.

A voltmeter is used to measure the potential difference between two points,
usually but not always in an electronic circuit comprised of many components.

What is the purpose of a voltmeter in a circuit?
the purpose of a voltmeter is used to measure voltage in a circuit
What is digital thermometer?
the special purpose digital voltmeter are devloped for measurement of temperatur. They are called as the digital thermometer .
Describe the proper placement of a voltmeter in a circuit?
A voltmeter should be connected in a parallel connection
What is the ideal voltmeter high or low?
Ideal Voltmeter has an infinite resistance so it won't draw current from the circuit, but in real life ideal voltmeter doesn't exist.
How do you connect an ammeter and voltmeter?
The voltmeter is connected across the supply and the ammeter is connected in series with the supply.
What is the purpose of a voltmeter in a circuit?
the purpose of a voltmeter is used to measure voltage in a circuit
What is the purpose of multimeter in a laboratory?
it can be used as a ammeter, voltmeter and also as a ohmmeter.
What is digital thermometer?
the special purpose digital voltmeter are devloped for measurement of temperatur. They are called as the digital thermometer .
What will happen if a voltmeter has a low shunt resistance instead of having high shunt resistance?
The purpose of a voltmeter is to indicate the potential difference between two points in a circuit.When a voltmeter is connected across a circuit, it shunts the circuit. If the voltmeter has a low resistance,it will draw a substantial amount of current. This action lowers the effective resistance of the circuit andchanges the voltage reading.
Voltmeter in series?
No. Voltmeter in parallel. Ammeter in series.
What is a dc voltmeter?
It is a voltmeter which can only measure direct current.
What does a voltmeter measure voltage in?
A voltmeter measures voltage in volts.
Which type digital voltmeter is the of fatest all digital voltmeter?
You mean fastest? Digital voltmeter gives reading in seconds.
What is the voltmeter reading this time?
positive terminal
What is voltmeter?
A voltmeter is a measuring instrument that is used in the measurement of the electric potential in volts.
Why there is an extension range of voltmeter when a series resistance not equal to voltmeter is used?
why is extention
What is a sentence for voltmeter?
A voltmeter is a device used to measure the voltage in an electrical circuit. An example sentence would be: She went to the hardware store to purchase a voltmeter.
