Ammeter 1 reads 0.20 A.

a. What should ammeter 3 indicate?
b. What should ammeter 4 indicate?

Given:

A1, A2, and A3 are in series, so all of them are the same, and you are given that.

Total resistance is R1+R2, or 37 ohms.

V= current*resistance=.2*37=7.4 volts

- Thanks a lot but what does ammeter 2 indicate? I'm a little confused with that. Maybe if possible the diagram will be posted but I sent an e-mail so hopefully they will post it, thanks.

Hopefully, you might get the diagram at this website below, if not im sorry. I'm just waiting for them to post and I appreciate it, thanks.

To determine what ammeter 2 indicates, we need to understand the circuit configuration. Unfortunately, without the diagram, it is difficult to give an accurate answer. However, I can provide you with some general information about ammeters in a circuit.

An ammeter is a device used to measure electric current. It is connected in series with the component or circuit being measured. The ammeter reading indicates the current flowing through that part of the circuit.

In the given problem, ammeter 1 (A1) reads 0.20 A, which means that the current flowing through that part of the circuit is 0.20 A. If ammeter 2 (A2) is also in series with the same components as A1, then ideally, it should read the same current, which is 0.20 A. However, without the diagram, it is not possible to confirm the configuration and the actual reading of A2.

If you have access to the circuit diagram, I recommend checking the connections to see if A2 is indeed in series with the same components as A1. Additionally, verify if there are any other components or branches in the circuit that might affect the reading of A2.

Once you have the accurate circuit configuration, you can use Ohm's law (V = I * R) to determine the voltage across specific resistors or the battery voltage, as mentioned in the second part of your question.
