There will be errors. The error comes from the measured resistance size of the decision.

How do you measure the resistance of a motor?

we can measure the resistance of the motor by using voltmeter ammeter method of by directly using a multimeter across the armature terminals of the motor in voltmeter ammeter method we should use a less value of dc voltage to find the resistance


How does an ammeter work?

An ammeter is a low voltage voltmeter in parallel with a small resistance resistor. Current flow through the resistor creates a voltage drop across it which is then measured by the voltmeter.


Which will normally have the larger resistance a voltmeter or an ammeter?

A voltmeter has the large resistance.The voltage across any component can be measured if & only if the terminals of that component will be open and this will we can acheiv if we connect the high resistance voltmeter across the open terminals of that component to measure the voltage.


What happens if an ammeter is connected in parallel and voltmeter connected in series in a circuit?

The voltmeter will register the volts, the ammeter will either explode or blow a fuse since it has a very low resistance and is designed to be used in series to measure the current flowing through it.

Why does voltmeter measure current more accurately than an ammeter?

A voltmeter does not measure current, it measures voltage in units named volts. An ammeter measures current in units named amperes or amps in common shorthand. A voltmeter is connected in parallel to the circuit being measured, whereas an ammeter is connected in series with the circuit being measured.


How is an ammeter converted to a voltmeter?

The ammeter is used in series, because you want to measure the current through a circuit. The voltmeter is used in parallel, because you want to measure the voltage across a circuit. If you were to place the voltmeter in series, no current would flow because of the relatively high impedance of the voltmeter. If you were to place the ammeter in parallel, you would create a short-circuit, due to the relatively low impedance of the ammeter.


What is the relative resistance of a good ammeter and a good voltmeter?

A good ammeter has low resistance to ensure it does not significantly affect the current flowing through the circuit it is measuring. In contrast, a good voltmeter has high resistance to minimize the current drawn from the circuit, allowing it to measure the voltage across a component without altering its behavior. This difference in resistance characteristics is crucial for accurate measurements in electrical circuits.


Why placing the ammeter between the potential divider and the voltmeter will give an incorrect value?

beacause ammeter is use to measure the current not to measure the voltage


What is the difference between ammeters and amp meters?

An Ammeter connects a low impedance on the test points, so the equivalent of that is a "short circuit" between the test points. This is done to avoid a drop of current on the tested circuit. A Voltmeter connects a high impedance on the test points, so the equivalent of that is a "open circuit" between the test points. This is done to avoid a drop of voltage on the tested circuit. --------- In terms of external connections Ammeter (used to measure current) is connected in series of the circuit (through which the current flow need to be measured) and voltmeter (used to measure voltage) is connected in parallel to points in circuit (across which voltage needs to be measured).


What is the calibration of ammeter?

An ammeter should not be used as a voltmeter. An ammeter is a low impedance device that measures the current going through a circuit, often by measuring the small voltage across a known resistance. A voltmeter is a high impedance device that measures the voltage across a circuit. If you were to connect an ammeter as if it were a voltmeter, you would effectively short out the circuit, drastically affecting its operation, and potentially damaging both the circuit and the ammeter.
