You have a 10 ohm resistor connected in series with an ammeter. The voltage applied to the whole circuit is 1.2 volts. At the same time you have a voltmeter connected across the 10 ohm resistor and voltmeter reads 0.9 volts. The circuit draws a total of 0.5 amps. Can you determine resistance of the ammeter?
The potential drop across the voltemeter is 0.9V the memaining voltage across ammeter is 1.2-0.9= 0.3V
this is the potential drop across the ammeter. the resistance of ammeter is r=V/I = 0.3/0.5 = 0.6ohms
voltmeter has high internnal resistance where as the ammeter has very low internal resistance.

An ammeter is connected in series to a battery of voltage Vb and a resistor of unknown resistance Ru (Figure 1) . The ammeter reads a current Io. Next, a resistor of unknown resistance Rr is connected in series to the ammeter, and the ammeter's reading drops to I1. Finally, a second resistor, also of resistance Rr, is connected in series as well. Now the ammeter reads I2. If I1/I0=4/5, find I2/I0. Express the ratio I2/I0 numerically. I2/I0 =
