JEE Main & Advanced Physics Alternating Current / प्रत्यावर्ती धारा Question Bank Alternating Current, Voltage and Power

  • question_answer
    Alternating current can not be measured by dc ammeter because                                            [AIEEE 2004]

    A)            ac cannot pass through dc ammeter

    B)            Average value of complete cycle is zero

    C)            ac is virtual

    D)            ac changes its direction

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       In dc ammeter, a coil is free to rotate in the magnetic field of a fixed magnet. If an alternating current is passed through such a coil, the torque will reverse it?s direction each time the current changes direction and the average value of the torque will be zero.
