What device is used to measure the resistance of a resistor?
You can use a multi-meter to measure resistance. The specific portion of the meter for measuring resistance is called an ohmmeter.
What could be the tendencies for the voltmeter if the voltages to be measured exceed the range?
You'd potentially damage the meter. Whether you do or not is immaterial; if the meter cannot measure the range of voltages you are expecting, it will not give accurate readings over that voltage range, thus you should not use it. Buy a different meter that will measure over that voltage range, or use a voltage divider circuit to get a lower voltage at a certain ratio of what is actually in the circuit (this may be difficult to do, or very simple depending on the circuit tested - the key is you do not want to load the circuit with the voltage divider network).
What measuring instrument is used to measure potential difference?
To Measure Voltage or potential difference you can use volt meter, there are diferent methode to measure DC voltage and AC Voltage.use a AVO meter and you can choose Voltage in each voltage range on the selector.a Volt meter instrument you can find it by manual methode and digital .Dont forget to read manual book before you will measure the voltage.Comment'Potential difference' is exactly the same thing as 'voltage'; they are synonymous.
Why the series resistor of the voltmeter is high?
Aim of any measuring instrument is to measure the object without affecting it. Voltmeter is used to measure voltage between two points and connected in parallel. Thus voltmeter should not change the voltage. If voltmeter resistance is very high, it will be as good as infinity compared to load. Thus connecting voltmeter will not change the voltage and measure it accurately.
What is the voltage of a cell measuring?
They need to use- well the best thing/object/equipment for them to use is a voltmeter!
Voltmeter is used for?
A volt meter is use to measure the voltage of the circuit.

What are two familiar mistakes when using an ohmmeter and a voltmeter?
Voltmeter connect in parallel with the circuit setting on voltmeter highest range first then to lower range. Ohmmeter we need to use the ohmmeter meter setting connect across the resistor
How do you use a volt meter to test the heater on a spa?
Turn on the voltmeter and attach a probe to different terminals on each component for a reading. What you do with the results is up to you if you are a heater tech. If you do not know how to use a voltmeter - you are already in trouble.

Why potentiometer is more accurate than voltmeter?
volt meter draws current from the device whose reading is to be taken and potentiometer does not draw current from the device so it is better to use potentiometer than voltmeter
Would a photographer use a voltmeter?
Only if he was working on something electrical. Otherwise, he/she would be more inclined to use a light meter of some sort.
In physics what is the use of meter bridge?
The specific resistance of the material can be calculated
How do you measure inductance of a coil?
Type your answer here... By use an inductance meter or an inductance bridge
Why is the resistance of volt meter very high?
So it doesn't effect the circuit being tested. If a low impediance or resistance meter were inserted in the circuit, voltages may drop and effect the accuracy of the test. Any voltmeter will use some power from the circuit to make a reading. A "high impediance voltmeter" will use very little power from the circuit so the voltage reading will be as accurate as it can be.
Can you measure power with a volt meter?
No. A voltmeter measures potential difference (voltage). To measure power, a wattmeter is required. On the other hand, for a d.c. circuit only, you could use a voltmeter and an ammeter, and multiply their readings in order to calculate the power of a load.
