An ideal ammeter should
A) consist of a galvanometer in series with a large resistor.
B) have a high coil resistance.
C) introduce a very small series resistance into the circuit whose current is to be measured.
D) introduce a very large series resistance into the circuit whose current is to be measured.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An ideal ammeter is designed to measure the current in a circuit without significantly altering the current flow. To achieve this, it should introduce a very small series resistance into the circuit, ensuring that it does not significantly affect the overall resistance and hence the current of the circuit.
