10. An ammeter is connected in series while voltmeter is connected in parallel with therest of the circuit. Why ?

Answer»

Anammeter is connected in serieswith the circuit because the purpose of theammeteris to measure the current through the circuit. Since theammeteris a low impedance device,connectingit inparallelwith the circuit would cause a short circuit, damaging theammeterand/or the circuit

An ammeter is a LOW RESISTANCE device and is connected in series so as the whole circuit current flows through it for an accurate measurement.
