Current will be decreased because of the resistance of the ammeter added to the circuit's resistance. In other words total resistance increases.

What will happen to the ammeter reading if the resistance is increased?

The current decreases due to I=V/R. The ammeter reading will decrease as R is increased.


How would a ammeter be connected in a circuit?

An ammeter is always connected in series in the circuit.


When an ammeter is connected in a circuit which terminal of the battery must be connected to the positive terminal of the ammeter?

The positive terminal of the battery would be connected to the positive terminal of the ammeter. The load would then be connected between the two negative terminals, positive side of the load being connected to the negative side of the ammeter.


How should a ammeter and voltmeter be connected in circuit?

Ammeter is coneccted in series with circuit but Voltmeter is connected in parallel.


1 What is the effect caused by the ammeter resistance when an ammeter is inserted into a circuit to measure the current?

An ammeter has a finite resistance which is inserted in series with the rest of the circuit, increasing the total resistance and decreasing the current. A good ammeter has a very low resistance, so it shouldn't affect the circuit noticeably.


Why should ammeter still be connected in a series despite the fact that the bulbs are already connected in parallel?

Because the ammeter connected in parallel will act as a short circuit.


An ammeter is always connected in what?

Series.


How is voltmeter connected to ammeter?

in series


How ammeter connected?

In series with a load.


Which circuit the ammeter connected in parallel?

An ammeter is always connected in series and a vlotmeter in parallel


Where must a voltmeter be placed in a circuit?

One does NOT insert a voltmeter in a series cirtcuit...an ammeter can be inserted in series, though. A voltmeter is connected in parallel with the source voltage and low(ground) side.


What will the decrease of the light intensity on an LDR do to the ammeter reading?

The decrease of light intensity on an LDR will cause the resistance of the LDR to increase, which will result in a decrease in current flow through the circuit. As a result, the ammeter reading will decrease.
