Question 39
Current ElectricityWhich of the following will convert a milliammeter to a voltmeter?
- A.Low series resistance
- B.Low parallel resistance
- C.High series resistance
- D.High parallel resistance
- E.Parallel resistance equal to milliammeter resistance.
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: C (High series resistance)
Explanation
A voltmeter must draw very little current, so a high resistance (multiplier) is put in series with the meter.
