Textbook Question
Chapter 9, Problem 3PP
A meter movement has a full-scale value of 500 µA (0.000500 A) and 50 mV (0.050 V). A shunt is to be connected to the meter that permits it to have a full-scale current value of 2 A. What is the resistance of the shunt?

The convention for voltmeters is to use a black wire for the negative reference terminal and a red wire for the positive reference terminal.
Explain why two wires are required to measure a voltage.
If the wires into the voltmeter are swapped by accident, what will happen during the next measurement?
We want to make a resistivity measurement. How should we connect the probes of the multimeter? Drag the connector images to
the correct locations and "Not Connected" images to the rest.

If PMMC meter have internal resistance of
1002 and full-scale range of 1mA. Assume
we wish to increase the meter range to 2A.
the value of shunt resistor will be:
OR_sh=0.00500
OR_sh= 0.00010
