Ammeter is connected in _____ in a circuit:

Answer: Series.

  • A Parallel
  • B Series
  • C Either way
  • D Between batteries

Correct answer: B. Series

Explanation: Ammeter measures current and must be connected in series so that all the current flows through it.

SeriesbatteryR1R2I (same in R1, R2)ParallelbatteryR1R2I1I2

In series, the same current flows through both resistors; in parallel, the current splits between branches and the voltage across each resistor is the same.

Concept context

Ohm's law, resistors, Kirchhoff's laws, Wheatstone bridge, and cells.
