What is the correct instrument to measure the final power amplifier current?

  1. AAn ohmmeter
  2. BA wattmeter
  3. CA voltmeter
  4. DAn ammeter

Correct answer: D — An ammeter. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

An ammeter is the right tool because it measures electric current, which is the flow of electrons through a circuit, and the question specifically asks for the current drawn by the final power amplifier. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
