If neither switch is closed, how can you tell whether there is a potential difference across any of the circuit components? Select the best answer. O Check across each component with the multimeter probes, using the voltmeter setting in the 20V range to start. O By using the ammeter to measure across the component. If there is a potential difference, that voltage will cause a current to flow. O Check using the multimeter. Measurements in km or cm indicate potential difference, but mm or um are probably too small to measure. O By checking the resistance across the component with the ohmmeter. More resistance means greater potential difference.

leaving a freevway. Current from the opposite side must travel further, weakening the potential on that side. This creates a potent
the motor in that direction, causing the motor to spin.
O Only the side where the switch is closed forms a cormplete circuit, so the motor must spin in that direction.
