Q: Which of the following statements is true regarding a potentiometer?
Solution:
A potentiometer can measure both AC and DC voltages, but it is primarily used for DC measurements due to its principle of operation.
Steps: 4
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what a potentiometer is. A potentiometer is a device used to measure voltage.
Step 2: Learn that a potentiometer can measure two types of voltage: AC (Alternating Current) and DC (Direct Current).
Step 3: Recognize that while it can measure both types, it is mainly used for DC measurements.
Step 4: Know that the reason it is primarily used for DC is because of how it operates, which is more effective with DC.
