What is Voltmeter and How to use it
Voltmeter and its use
Introduction:
A galvanometer having high resistance in series is called a voltmeter. It is used to measure potential difference.
Working:
The potential difference across a resistance is directly’ proportional to the current passing through it. As the deflection of the pointer is directly proportional to the current, therefore the deflection of the pointer is directly proportional to the potential difference. A small potential difference produces a full-scale deflection in a galvanometer. In order to measure high potential difference, a high resistance is connected in series with the galvanometer. Most of the potential difference drops across the high resistance. Value of resistor connected in series depends upon the range of the voltmeter. In order to measure the potential difference, a voltmeter is always connected in parallel to the circuit components.
The advantages of an e-book are: – the ability to quickly publish and publish the results of scientific research, educational and practical results of the author’s work; – lack of time and material costs to provide a full cycle of publishing and printing preparation of a paper edition; – creation of electronic editions of a universal format of use; – the speed of launching an unlimited circulation of the book; – affordability for authors;- the possibility of paying royalties;- ease of viewing, storing and distributing electronic publications;
