Question

part 6 - electronics information
when current reaches an ammeter in a circuit, the current
a is increased.
b stops flowing.
c is measured.
d is diverted to another circuit.
click the button or type the letter next to your answer.

Explanation:

An ammeter is an instrument used to measure the electric current in a circuit. It is connected in series in the circuit. When the current flows through the ammeter, it measures the magnitude of that current. Option A is incorrect as an ammeter does not increase the current. Option B is wrong because the current does not stop flowing when it reaches the ammeter (it is designed to allow current to pass through for measurement). Option D is also incorrect as an ammeter is not used to divert current to another circuit.

Answer:

C. is measured.
