Circuit shows the method of Measurement of low resistance by Ammeter-Voltmeter method. The measured resistance Rm for the given Circuit is _________(a) Rx + Rv(b) \(\frac{R_x^2}{R_x + R_v}\)(c) \(\frac{R_v^2}{R_x + R_v}\)(d) \(\frac{R_x R_v}{R_x + R_v}\)This question was posed to me in a job interview.The above asked question is from Advanced Problems on Measurement of Low Medium and High Resistance in chapter Measurement of Resistance of Electrical Measurements |
Answer» CORRECT OPTION is (d) \(\frac{R_x R_v}{R_x + R_v}\) The BEST EXPLANATION: Measured resistance Rm = \(\frac{V_x}{I_A} = \frac{V_x}{I_v + I_R}\) \(\frac{I_v}{V_x} =\frac{1}{R_v}\) And \(\frac{I_R}{V_x} = \frac{1}{R_X}\) So, Rm = \(\frac{R_x R_v}{R_x+R_v}\). |
