What is an Ammeter? How is It Connected in a Circuit? Draw a Diagram to Illustrate Your Answer.

उत्तर

An ammeter is an instrument that is used to measure electric current. It is always connected in series with the circuit in which the current is to be measured. 

 

Suppose we want to find out the current flowing through a conductor AB. Here, we should connect the ammeter in series with the conductor AB as above.
