Q. A circuit to verify Ohm's law uses ammeter and voltmeter in series or parallel connected correctly to the resistor. In the circuit :

JEE MainJEE Main 2020Current Electricity

Solution:

Conceptual
Option (1) is correct
Ammeter :- In series connection, the same current flows through all the components. It aims at measuring the curent flowing through the circuit and hence, it is connected in series.
Voltmeter :- A voltmeter measures voltage change between two points in a circuit, So we have to place the voltmeter in parallal with the circuit component.
