=======================

DC voltage is measured with a voltmeter.

DC current is measured with an ammeter.

That's all there is to measure in a DC circuit.

What is the difference between direct and indirect measurement?

Direct is an exact measurement and indirect is an estimate.


What are five examples of instruments or methods that scientists use for studying currents?

ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler) measures current speed and direction using sound waves. Drifters are instruments that track water movement by following the flow passively. Satellite altimetry uses data from satellites to measure sea surface height, which can indirectly reveal current patterns. Rotor current meters are mechanical devices that spin as water flows past them, providing information on current speed. Direct current measurements can be made using instruments like a flow meter or current meter attached to a mooring or boat.


Can instrument transformers be used to extend the range of a moving coil voltmeter?

Not directly, as MC instruments are direct-current instruments, whereas instrument transformers only work on a.c.


What measurements will each of these instruments take?

There is no instrument on that list that can take any reliable measurements.


what are the advantage of current transformer?

These are used with low range ammeters to measure current in HVAC 's where direct connection of instruments is impratical. They not only insulate the instruments from HV lines but also step down current in a known ratio. ( i .e . ) Iline =(I1 \I2) * Ammeter Reading where Iline = Line Current I1 \I2 = Current Ratio


How precise are measurements to instruments?

They depend on the design of the instrument.


Why do we note the null points with direct and reverse current?

Noting null points with both direct and reverse current helps ensure the accuracy and consistency of the measurements. By using both current directions, any errors or inconsistencies in the testing equipment or method can be identified and corrected, leading to more reliable results.


Will a battery supply direct current or alternating current or ac?

direct current.


Why do the puerto ricans use instruments?

The same reason everyone else uses instruments, for music or for testing and measurements, depending on what type of instruments you are talking about.


How many types of direct current and what is the frequency of direct current?

There is only one type of direct current and its 'frequency' is zero.


Which would make more shock the alternating current or direct current?

direct current


Is your house alternating or direct current?

Alternating current. Direct current is used in batteries.
