Question

The sensitivity of the multimeter is given in:
A. \[\Omega \]
B. Amperes
C. \[k\Omega /V\]
D. None of these

Answer 1

Hint: Electrical voltage, current, resistance, and other values are measured using multimeters. Its function is a combined function of an ammeter, a voltmeter, and an ohmmeter as well as other measuring instruments. It is a standard device used for multi-tasking. The main function is to measure the characteristics of the electric signal.

Complete answer:
The multimeter sensitivity can be defined as the measure of the resistance offered per volt of full-scale deflection. The multimeter sensitivity indicates the internal resistance of the multimeter. This sensitivity of the multimeter helps us to find whether the internal resistance of the multimeter is high or low. If the multimeter has high sensitivity it means that the multimeter has high internal resistance and if the multimeter has low sensitivity it means that the multimeter has low internal resistance. If the sensitivity is low this will cause a serious error in the voltage measurement.
The sensitivity of the multimeter is given in kilo-ohms per voltage or ohms/voltage. That is \[k\Omega /V\]or \[\Omega /V\].
Therefore the correct option is C.

Note:
Accuracy and the precision of the multimeter will ensure that the measurement that we take will be useful. The higher precision of the multimeter will enable easier repeatability. The higher accuracy of the multimeter enables the readings to be more perfect. The main functions of the multimeter include the voltage measurement of direct and the alternating current and the resistance measurement of electrical capacitance and inductance. Multimeters are of two types. One is an analog multimeter and the other one is a digital multimeter.
