Q19

Voltage's measured:

A.
in parallel
B.
in series
Answer
C.
after breaking the circuit
D.
after checking resistance
E.
after checking current

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Voltage is measured in series.
When measuring voltage, the voltmeter is connected in parallel with the component or circuit being measured.
In a series circuit, the voltage across each component adds up to the total voltage of the circuit.
Therefore, to measure the voltage accurately, the voltmeter needs to be connected in series
