Can you measure contact potential with a normal multimeter? Why not?
No, We cannot. The potential barrier is across the Junction,
typically creating a "barrier" for the free electrons to move from
n- side to the p side.
the potential is not from the ends . And it is the
moment there are metal contacts joined to the p side and n side,
The potential is "neutralised". that is the p-n junction is not a
battery to provide a voltage across a voltmeter.
Can you measure contact potential with a normal multimeter? Why not?
Which of the following frequencies could you measure accurately using a Multimeter and why? 0 Hz (DC), 60 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz, 1 MHz

Prob. 2 (5pts) A multimeter on the 30 DC volt scale has an input resistance of 10 megaohms. If the multimeter is used to measure the potential drop across R2 in the following circuit, what is the error in the multimeter reading? R110 Mohms R2 5 Mohms
the component To measure voltage using a digital multimeter the probes of the meter would be placed O A. Parallel OB. Adjacent O C.Perpendicular OD. Tangent
You have a new Digital Multimeter and would like to know its input impedance. You have three different pairs of resistors with values of 600, 60k and 6M. You construct a voltage divider from each pair, power it with 20V DC and use the new meter to measure the output voltage. For R=600, you measure 10V. For R=60k, you measure 9.95V. For R=6M, you measure 6.66V. What is the input impedance of your new meter?
DMM is Digital MultiMeter and probes. Please answer the question at the bottom: Explain why the readings changed. Include a schematic and your calculations Procedure: 1M12 Resistor Measurement 13. Place a 1M2 Resistor on a piece of paper placed on the lab bench. 14. Measure the resistance. Record the reading in the Analysis Section below. 15. Pick up the resistor with your hands. 16. With your thumbs, hold the DMM test leads against the resistor leads. 17. Measure the resistance....
A multimeter is connected to a resistor in each of the three pictures below (A,B,C). For which of these picture (A, B, or C) is the multimeter set up to measure resistance? How about voltage? How about current? How do you know? 26.7 26T
Question 1 (1 point) A multimeter is connected to a resistor in each of the three pictures below (A,B,C). For which of these picture (A, B, or C) is the multimeter set up to measure resistance? How about voltage? How about current? How do you know? 26.7
Explain the contact potential. Use this to further explain why one expects to see pulses from a silicon diode detectors even when the bias voltage is not applied.
you are given a multimeter a stopwatch a power supply, a resistor and a capacitor. you do not have access to a capacitance meter. using this equipment, how can you determine the capacitance value of the capacitor? what measurement will contribute the most uncertainty?
