What instrument measures the height of a desk?
A heightometer.
What is the instrument called that measures current?
The instrument used to measure electrical current is called an ammeter, which is actually a shortened form of 'amp meter'. The current is measured in amperes. In scientific labs, a much more sensitive instrument called a galvanometer is used to measure very small currents.
What is the angle between lines of force and equipotential lines in an electrical field?
The angle is a right angle.
What instrument measures both ac and DC?
hot wire ammmeter or a moving iron ammeter will work for ac and dc.
What is Grounding and shielding in electronics instrument?
in an electric circuit, it is treated as a reference from which other voltages can be measured. also it acts as a common return path of electric current leakages
What instrument measures electric potential?
Voltmeter, potentiometervoltmeterVoltmeter
What is a ammet?
An instrument that measures electric current in amperes.
What is Equipotential lines in electric field?
Equipotential lines are lines that are perpendicular to the lines representing the electric field of a particle. A particle can travel freely of equipotential lines without doing any work.
What instrument measures current in an electric circuit?
That's the purpose of the "ammeter".
What quantity measures the galvonometer?
A galvanometer is a type of ammeter: An instrument for detecting and measuring electric current.
Can two different equipotential lines cross each other?
No. If two equipotential surfaces intersect, then there would be two values of electric potential at the point of intersection, which is not possible.
What instrument measures electric current in a circuit?
an ameter is used to measure an electric current an glory likes Matt marsh :0
What are equipotential lines?
A uniform electric field exists between parallel plates of equal but opposite charges.
Why must electric field line be perpendicular to equipotential surfaces?
If the field lines were not perpendicular to the surface, then they could be decomposed into components perpendicular and parallel to the surface. But if there is an E-field along the surface, the surface is no longer an equipotential.
Is the keyboard electric or acoustic?
The keyboard is an electric instrument. Pretty much instrument that plugs in is an electric instrument, with exceptions to the acoustic-electric guitar.
Why is it important that an oscilloscope be used with an instrument before playing in a concert?
An oscilloscope is a device that measures oscillations, such as from current or voltage. For electric instruments, such as an electric guitar, this device can be important to help make sure that the instrument and its equipment are functioning properly before a concert.
What is one different between a galvanometer and an electric motor?
Electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy while a Galvanometer is an electrical instrument that measures small values of current.
