Which is correct about an ammeter?

a. The internal resistance must be much greater than the other resistances in the circuit.
b. The internal resistance must be much smaller than the other resistances in the circuit.
c. The internal resistance must be comparable to the other resistances in the circuit.

Amanometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tank. the fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differential height between the two arms of the manometer is 34 in. if the local atmospheric pressure is 12.7 psia, determine the absolute pressure in the tank for the cases of the

Air is held within a frictionless piston-cylinder container, which is oriented vertically. the mass of the piston is 0.45 kg and the cross-sectional area is 0.0030 m2. initially (state 1) the pressure of the gas is sufficient to support the weight of the piston as well as the force exerted by the atmospheric pressure ( 101.32 kpa). the volume occupied by the air within the cylinder in state 1 is 1.00 liter. one end of a spring (with spring constant k = 1000 n/m) is attached to the top of the piston, while the other end of the spring is attached to a stage that can move vertically. initially the spring is undeflected and therefore exerts no force. then the stage is then moved quasistatically downward a distance of 10.0 cm, at which point the system reaches state 2. the piston-cylinder is not insulated; rather it remains in diathermal contact with the surroundings, which are at a constant temperature of 300 k. what is the change of pressure within the container?

Amoving electron has kinetic energy k1. after a net amount of work w has been done on it, the electron is moving one-quarter as fast in the opposite direction. (a) find w in terms of k1. (b) does your answer depend on the final direction of the electron's motion?
