millivoltmeter has more ressistance.By ohm's law V=IR. if we assume that I is constant then V proportional to R as the millivoltmeter has more voltage as compared to micro-voltmeter , the milli voltmeter has greater resistance

Name the instrument used to measure electric current?

A magnetic compass can detect current, butyou'll need an Ammeter to measure it.A galvanometer can detect current ~ butyou'll need an Ammeter to measure it.


How range of a ammeter is extended?

if we take resistance in parallel with ammeter then the range of ammeter will change.


What will happen if ammeter is put across a resistance in a circuit?

Maybe blow the fuse or burn out the wiring. An ammeter has an extremely low resistance. connecting it across the resistance causes the resulting parallel resistance to be slightly lower than the resistance of the ammeter 1/Rt = 1/R + 1/R(ammeter)


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.


Will the current of circuit change on changing the ammeter resistance?

The accuracy of ammeter changes as the resistance is increased or decreased.AnswerThe simple answer is yes, it will change. However, whether it will be a perceptible change is another question. Ammeters are designed to cause the minimum change to the actual circuit current when they are inserted into a circuit.


Why shunt resistance must be small in ammeter?

An ammeter has to measure to current flowing through the circuit. Resistance offers an obstruction to the current flow. So, if the resistance of an ammeter is large , the current measured by the ammeter will be quite less as compared to the actual amount of current flowing through the circuit which is undesirable. If ammeter has zero resistance , then it will give the exact value of current. But this is not practically possible because every material has some value of internal resistance which we can't control. For this reason , ammeter must have small resistance


Why do you have specific resistance combination inside a voltmeter and an ammeter Explain?

in voltmeter we have internal Resistance and connected in series , to current don't transfer in voltmeter , and we have internal resistance in ammeter and connected in parallel , to most current transfer through the ammeter.


Why should a millimeter have a low resistance?

An ammeter is placed in series with a circuit in order to measure the current. If it has any appreciable resistance, inserting the ammeter will increase the normal resistance of the circuit and reduce the value of the current flowing through it. The ammeter will, therefore, give an inaccurate reading (under-read). So the ammeter must have a very low resistance so that it has the minimum effect on the normal resistance of the circuit being tested. Ideally, the ammeter should have zero resistance but, of course, this is impossible.


Why the resistance of an ammeter is bery low?

0. An ammeter is placed in series with the circuit in question; if its' internal resistance is high, it will change the current flow, thus making the measurement meaningless. For the same reason an ideal voltage meter will have infinite resistance.


Which has higher resistance an ammeter or micro ammeter?

Micro ammeter has higher resistance. use ohm's law.. Say the voltage applied is 1 V. then for the ammeter.. I=1A, V=1V R=1 ohm for the micro ammeter.. I=0.000001, V=1V R=1000000 ohms
