Question
A 1Ω resistance is in series with an ammeter which is balanced by 75 cm of potentiometer wire. A standard cell of 1.02 V is balanced by 50 cm. The ammeter shows  a reading of 1.5A. The error in the ammeter reading
Options:
A .  0.002 A
B .  0.03 A
C .  1.01 A
D .  no error
Answer: Option B
:
B
ip=Vl=1.0250
Voltage across ammeter = Vll1
=1.0250×75=1.022×3=0.51×3
The true current I1A=VAR=1.531I1A=1.53AError=I1AIA=1.531.5=0.03A
