What instrument do you use to measure electrical force?
Electric force is the attractive or repulsive force between two charged particles. The potential difference between two points can be measured with a Voltmeter.
What is a eletroscope?
An electroscope is an early scientific instrument. It is used to detect and measure electricity or an electric charge on a body.
How is potential difference measured?
Voltmeters and Potentiometers are used to measure potential difference.2nd Answer:Not true. While a voltmeter is indeed used to measure potential difference, the potentiometer is a rotating control device, like a volume control on a radio. The potentiometer is actually a variable resistor, and measures absolutely nothing.
Define voltage in terms of electric potential energy and charge?
When unlike charges are moved farther apart, they gain electrical potential energy. Electrical potential difference is the change in potential energy per coulomb of charge. Voltage is the common name for electrical potential difference and is measured in volts (V). Electrical energy depends on the amount of charge and voltage. Electrochemical cells, or batteries, are a common source of voltage. We use voltmeters to measure potential difference. :)
Why do you measure electricity?
You mean the voltage? The electric power? the current? What electricity you mean? Perhaps you mean why do electricity suppliers measure it? To send me the bill of course.
What is used to measure potential difference?
A Volt meter is used to measure potential difference (a.k.a. voltage). Potential difference is measured in units called: Volts (V).
What instrument uses electricity to measure sound waves?
oscilloscope
What unit of measurement is most used to measure electricity?
The watt or kilowatt (1000 watts) for power, volts for potential difference, amps for current
What instrument measures electrical energy?
BTUAnswerBTU AnswerBritish thermal unit; BTU
Which instrument uses electricity to measure sounds waves?
oscilloscope
The function and use of an ammeter and a voltmeter?
A: ACTUALLY they are both the same just the application makes one or the other. Their function is to measure potential difference on a load or circuitry
How do you measure conductivity?
With an AMPD meter using 1% voltage radar
What is the Measure of the energy available to move electrons or potential difference?
potential energy
How do you measure electric potential?
A voltmeter is an instrument used to measure electric potential difference. The voltmeter have two electrodes, reference electrode and test electrode, the electrodes are put in two different places where you want to find the potential difference. For instance, if the test electrode is placed on the positive pole and the reference electrode on the negative pole of a 3V battery, the voltmeter would read '+3 volts'.
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.
What kind of difference is measured in volts?
Volts are a measure of electric potential difference.
What instrument is hooked to galvanometers?
Your question is confused. A galvanometer is an instrument, it is not hooked to an instrument. It is hooked to an electrical circuit of some kind, to measure how much electricity is flowing.
