Question

Kindly answer 3 & 4. Thank you

1. What happen if you only touch one test probe of the voltmeter to one end of
a battery?
Nothing will be indicated in the voltmeter. The reason is that the meter circuit
is not completed because we are not touching the other prob to the other
end.
2. How does the meter have to connect to the battery in order to provide an
indication?
- To show the voltage, we must connect the positive probe to the positive end
of the battery and negative prob to the negative end of battery.
3. What does this tell us about voltmeter use and the nature of voltage?
4. Is there such a thing as voltage "at" a single point?
