Tell the odd one out. Give a proper explanation.
Find the odd one out:
Options
Voltmeter
Ammeter
Galvanometer
Thermometer
Solution
Thermometer
Explanation:
It is an instrument for measuring the temperature of a body. The rest of the three are electrical instruments based on the phenomenon of electromagnetism and are used for measuring some electrical parameters such as current and voltage.
