Select the correct phrase:

The value (number) shown by Ammeter AT is greater than / less than / equal to the value shown by Ammeter A3.


greater than

(AT is the total current of all three branches)

400

Show your calculations and include units in your answer.

V = IR

12 = I(600)

12/600 = I

0.02 A = I

400

What value (number) will A3 show?

V = IR

20 = I(10)

20/10 = I

2 A = I

500

Show your calculations and include units in your answer.


V = IR

20 = I (2+9+5)

20 = I (16)

20/16 = I

1.25 A = I

500

What value (number) will AT show?


IT = I1 + I2 + I3

IT = 20/5 + 20/6 + 20/10

IT = 9.33 A
