Current and voltage readings taken on the far right of a meter's scale provide greater inaccuracy that readings taken from mid scale on the meter.

What is the Primary function of a voltage follower circuit?

Its purpose is to provide approximately the same voltage to a load as what is input to the amplifier, but at a much greater current. In other words, it has no voltage gain, but it does have current gain.


Why are the readings on a ammeter always different?

The readings on an ammeter are different because they measure the current flowing through a circuit at that specific point in time. Current can vary due to changes in the circuit components, resistance, and voltage. These variations result in different readings at different moments.


Why do the readings differ for increasing and decreasing values of the incandescent lamp voltages?

...what readings? current? voltage? power? lux?


Is it true that for the same resistance the greater the voltage the greater the current?

true


Why do two ideal voltage source of unequal voltage cannot be connected in parallel?

If two ideal sources of unequal voltage are connected in parallel the higher voltage will provide a majority of the current (a two percent difference in voltage would provide an additional 5% of the current) and (in the case of batteries) the larger would provide charging current, quickly draining it.


What is the relationship between voltage potential and electrical current flow in a circuit?

Voltage potential is the force that pushes electrical current through a circuit. The higher the voltage, the greater the potential for current flow. In other words, voltage drives the flow of current in a circuit.


Is emf current greater than current?

EMF is electromotive force. It is another name for voltage. Voltage is electric potential in joules per coulomb. Current is electric flow, in amperes. Amperes are coulombs per second. Voltage and current are not the same thing, and "emf current", or "voltage current" does not make sense.


What happen to the current when the voltage is greater than or equal to 6 volts?

The current is greater than or equal to (6) divided by (the effective resistance of the circuit).


An increase in voltage causes a greater?

An increase in voltage causes a greater electric current to flow in a circuit, assuming the resistance remains constant, based on Ohm's Law. This relationship is described by Ohm's Law as V=IR, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance.


What is Difference Between Current Source and Voltage Source?

A current source varies the output voltage to maintain the desired current. A voltage source has a constant output regardless of the current draw (up to the capacity of the supply, of course).


What would induce a greater electric current in a wire?

A greater electric current in a wire can be induced by increasing the voltage applied across the wire or decreasing the resistance of the wire. Both factors contribute to Ohm's Law (V=IR), where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance. Increasing the voltage or decreasing the resistance will lead to a higher current flowing through the wire.


How can you measure the electrical units?

You can measure electrical units such as voltage, current, and resistance using specific electrical measuring instruments like multimeters. Voltage is measured in volts (V), current in amperes (A), and resistance in ohms (Ω). These instruments provide accurate readings to help troubleshoot electrical systems and devices.
