Is a ammeter a resistor?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Usually, but some voltmeters are limited in the range of resistances they can measure.

Answer

No, voltmeters measure voltage, notresistance.

To increase the range of a dc ammeter you would use a?

Asked by Wiki User

To increase the range of an ammeter, you connect a very low impedance resistor in parallel with the ammeter.

What are the function of ammeter?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The purpose of an ammeter is to sense and display the magnitude of the current

flowing through it. When connected in series with a branch of an electrical circuit,

the meter displays the magnitude (and direction) of the current in that path ... which

you can't otherwise tell just by looking at the circuit.

An ammeter is used for what?

An ammeter is an instrument which is used for measurement of current flowing in any circuit

What is the proper placement of an ammeter in a circuit?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Ammeter should be inserted in the place where we need to find the current. Care must be taken while inserting ammeter such that it is in series always. For example if we need to measure the current through any device, we have to connect the ammeter in series with tht device.

Why is an ammeter is always connected in series with the circuit?

When considering electricity,

Current (measured in Amps) is often considered the flow of energy.

The force behind the flow is the Volts.

While the volts can be measured between any two points in the circuit (open, or closed), measuring the current, or flow of energy typically requires interrupting the flow.

Somewhat like water. One can measure pressure of the water on a branch, but one must have a way to monitor the actual flow to determine how much water has passed.

There are "exceptions" though.

If you have an AC circuit, then an inductive ammeter can measure the amps around a single leg if the circuit without being installed inline with the circuit.

Even with a DC circuit, it may be desirable to design a bypass or shunt circuit so that the majority of the current bypasses the ammeter, and only a small amount of the current actually flows through the ammeter.

How are ammeters added to circuits?

Ammeters are added in series to the circuit to be monitored.

How does an ammeter work?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

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.

What will happen to an ammeter reading if the resistors are connected in parallel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You would be drawing more current. It would be the same as adding more load to the circuit in a vehicle, say more lights. The lights would just be seen as more load (a resistive load in the case of incandescent lights). Add more lights (resistors) and more current is needed. The ammeter would indicate a higher current draw.

Is this a good block 5.7 LG SGI 14093638?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

That is a 350 that was used from 1987 to 1995, It could be a 2 bolt or 4 bolt main and did not say for sure. It could also have a roller are flat tappet camshaft in it.

It does have a 1 piece rear main seal.

The only problem they had with them is the block cracking down in the lifter gallery.

Those blocks were thin and weak in that area. Not a good block for high performance useage are high RPMs. Hope I helped.

What is the best way to install a rear main seal on a 1994 K1500 Chevy truck?

You either have to pull the engine or drop the transmission, which ever your more comfortable with.

Does a 2005 Chevrolet 2500 hd 6.0 liter have an Allison transmission?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It looks like 2005 was a transition year between the 4L80E and Allison 1000 with 6.0 engine. Sounds like 4L80E was typical, but easily upgraded to Allison at time of ordering, but also depending on packages and equipment.

If it has an external filter it is the Allison, otherwise it is 4L80E version.

Loud knocking banging noise on 350 Chevrolet that comes and goes still drives when making noise but everytime accelerate it starts banging. noise is coming from the motor really hard banging.?

Asked by Wiki User

With out hearing it, It is hard to say whats wrong. But the most common noise like that would probley be a ROD knocking. Time for engine overhaul.

What is 2000 jimmy front end hum noise?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You need to check the front wheel bearings, while driveing down the road stright turn the steering to the left and then to the right and listen to see if the hum noise changes, if not then both bearings are bad left and right sides. If the hum noise changes while turning to the left then right front bearings are bad , if hum noise changes while weaven to the right then left bearings are bad.

Is chev 400 v8 an interference motor?

No it is not. Before it would hurt the valve train, something would have to happen at a very high RPMs. The timing chain going out will not hurt the valves are the head.

What kind of freon is used in a 1994 Chevy 2500 pickup?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

94 is the year most vehicles were in the change-over stage from the factory from r-12 to r134, look for a yellow tag/stick under the hood as to which is in your system. It came from the factory with R12 Freon installed. Unless it has been converted to R134, then it still has R12. Due to the extremely high cost of R12, I suggest you convert it over to R134a.

Why does the check gages light on your 1994 silverado come on and the oil presure gauge is going up and down?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

the oil presser going up and down is why your check guadges light is coming on.. probly need a ned oil pump but check the sender first, much easer and cheeper to replace..

What side of the block on a 350 Chevy is even numbers?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Looking at the engine, left head front to back is 2-4-6-8

Right head front to back is 1-3-5-7

Firing order is, 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2

So that makes the left side of engine even.
