The device used to measure current in a circuit is
A. Ammeter
B. Galvanometer
C. Potentiometer
D. Voltmeter
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Ammeter measures current. Galvanometer detects presence and direction of small currents, can be calibrated as ammeter/voltmeter. Voltmeter measures voltage. Potentiometer measures emf precisely.
If a stone is dropped from a balloon rising upwards with a velocity of 10 m/s at a height of 75 m, what is the initial velocity of the stone relative to the ground?
Explanation:
Due to the inertia of motion, when an object is dropped from a moving vehicle (or balloon), it inherits the instantaneous velocity of that vehicle. Since the balloon was moving upwards at 10 m/s, the stone's initial velocity relative to the ground is 10 m/s upwards. It will rise slightly before falling.
