You are an electrician working in an industrial plant. A circuit contains eight incandescent lamps connected in series across 480 volts. One lamp has burned out, and you must determine which one is defective. You have available a voltmeter, ammeter, and ohmmeter Which meter would you use to determine which lamp is defective in the shortest possible time? Explain how you would use this meter and why

In the figure below you see the sketches for the front and back of an electrical circuit board. The board is cut into a trapezoidal shape and is made of plastic. On the back of the board there is conductive paint shown here in green. On the front there are some resistors and capacitors, in addition to terminals for inserting the leads from a DC power supply. The legs of the resistors and capacitors go through the holes on the board and are soldered to the conducting paint on the back side. You also have a multi-meter which you can use as an ammeter or a voltmeter. 16 v 4700 16 10 8 O- 7 3. 6. 4 O+
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.
