ID: 2052812 • Letter: 1

Question

1. The electrical resistance of an electrical conductor is directly proportional to:
a. The applied electrical field strength
b. The resistivity of the conducting metal
c. The amount of time during which electric current flows through the conductor
d. The cross-sectional area of the conducting material
e. The number of electrons flowing through the conductor each second

2. When two resistors are connected in such a way that all conduction electrons must pass through first one resistor then through a second resistor to complete the circuit the resistors are said to be connected in:
a. By Ohm's Law
b. So they can form a current loop
c. In parallel
d. In series
e. In tandem

3. When a galvanometer is made into a voltmeter we must connect:
a. a high resistance element in series
b. a low resistance element in parallel
c. a high voltage battery in parallel
d. a high voltage battery in series
e. a Kirchoff's rule adaptor across the meter

4. A voltmeter connected directly to the terminals of a batter which is connected to an electric current through which a large current is flowing will indicate:
a. The resistivity of the battery
b. The EMF of the battery
c. The terminal voltage of the battery
d. The amount of current flowing through the circuit
e. An electric power reading
