An AC ammeter is used to measure the current in a circuit. When a given direct current passes through the circuit, the ac ammeter reads 6 A. When another alternating current passes through the circuit, the AC ammeter reads 8 A. Then the reading of this ammeter if DC and AC flow through the circuit simultaneously is:

1. 102 A

2. 14 A

3. 10 A

4. 15 A

Alternating current cannot be measured by a D.C. ammeter because:

1. A.C. cannot pass through D.C. Ammeter
2. A. C. changes direction
3. Average value of current for the complete cycle is zero
4. D.C. Ammeter will get damaged

A direct current of \(5~ A\) is superimposed on an alternating current \(I=10sin ~\omega t\) flowing through a wire. The effective value of the resulting current will be:

1. \(15/2~A\) 2. \(5 \sqrt{3}~A\)
3. \(5 \sqrt{5}~A\) 4. \(15~A\)

In a heating arrangement, an alternating current having a peak value of \(28~\mathrm{A}\) is used. To produce the same heat energy, if direct current is used to produce the same amount of heat, then its magnitude will be:

1. about \(14~\mathrm{A}\)  2. about \(28~\mathrm{A}\)
3. about \(20~\mathrm{A}\) 4. cannot say
