No. When measuring current, use an ammeter and place it in series in the circuit.
A: An ammeter actually is a voltmeter measuring the voltage drop across a very small shunt resistance. They can measure AC or DC, make sure the meter is rated for the anticipated current, and always connect in series.
Ammeter should be inserted in the place where we need to find the current. Care must be taken while inserting ammeter such that it is in series always. For example if we need to measure the current through any device, we have to connect the ammeter in series with tht device.
There are a huge number of possibilities. What do you want to measure? Here are just a few: Calipers, micrometers, scales, measuring tapes, lasers, etc. for measuring distances. Rockwell hardness tester for measuring how hard a material is. Thermometer A sound meter for measuring how noisy a work place is. Pressure gauges Strain gauges for measure how much a part is stretched or compressed when a load is applied. Multimeter for measuring electrical voltages and currents. Tachometer for measuring how fast something is spinning
When considering electricity, Current (measured in Amps) is often considered the flow of energy. The force behind the flow is the Volts. While the volts can be measured between any two points in the circuit (open, or closed), measuring the current, or flow of energy typically requires interrupting the flow. Somewhat like water. One can measure pressure of the water on a branch, but one must have a way to monitor the actual flow to determine how much water has passed. There are "exceptions" though. If you have an AC circuit, then an inductive ammeter can measure the amps around a single leg if the circuit without being installed inline with the circuit. Even with a DC circuit, it may be desirable to design a bypass or shunt circuit so that the majority of the current bypasses the ammeter, and only a small amount of the current actually flows through the ammeter.
Since (by Kirchoff's current law) the current in a series circuit is the same at every point in the series circuit, it does not matter where you place the ammeter.
No. While it is true that one can measure current at any point in a circuit by breaking the circuit at that point and inserting the meter, not any meter will do it. One must use an ammeter to measure current.

Grab hold the meter stick. Place the 0 inch mark at top of what you are measuring. Record Data in meters.
place on end of what you're measuring at 0, and note where the other end is. example, when measuring a pencil, place one end at 0, and the other end should be at around 10cm
False. When stating the absolute location of a place, latitude is always given before longitude. The format is typically latitude first, then longitude.
The same method is used for both surface and submerged currents: you place a measuring instrument in the current to be measured, and you observe and note its progressions.
A force meter, also known as a Newton meter, is a tool for measuring the amount of Newtons a force is. (Forces are measured in Newtons.) It consists of a tube with measures on the side and a spring with a hook on the end. You place a weight on the hook and the spring will stretch accordingly, letting you take a reading of the mass in Newtons.

1. Lagrangian Method: (also called the float method) Studying the current by tracking a drifintg object. This involves floating something in acurrent that records the information as it drifts. 2. Eulerian Method: (also called the flow method) Studying the current by staying in one place and measuring changes to the velocity of the water as it flows past. This method uses fixedd instruments that meter/sample the current as it passes.
For AC circuits, amperage is checked with a clamp on amp meter. There is now in the market place a clamp on amp meter that will work on both AC and DC circuits.
