Question
Two statements are given-one labelled Assertion (A) and the other labelled Reason (R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes (a), (b), (c) and (d) as given below.
  1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  2. Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
  3. A is true but R is false.
  4. A is false and R is also false.
Assertion (A): An ammeter is connected in series in the circuit.
Reason (R): An ammeter is a high resistance galvanometer.

Answer

  1. A is true but R is false.
Explanation:
An ammeter is a low resistance galvanometer. It is used to measure the current in amperes. To measure the current of a circuit, the ammeter is connected in series in the circuit so that the current to be measured must pass through it. Since, the resistance of ammeter is low, so its inclusion in series in the circuit does not change the resistance and hence the main current in the circuit.
