**Title:** Expected Readings in a Circuit
**Description:**
Examine the following circuit diagram to determine expected readings.
**Problem Statement:**
What are the expected readings of the following in the figure below? (\(R = 8.00 \, \Omega\), \(\Delta V = 6.70 \, \text{V}\))
**Diagram Explanation:**
The circuit consists of:
- An ammeter (labeled A) and voltmeter (labeled V) connected in the circuit.
- Two resistors with resistances \(10.0 \, \Omega\) and \(5.00 \, \Omega\).
- A voltage source providing \(4.50 \, \text{V}\).
- Additional resistors labeled \(R = 8.00 \, \Omega\).
**Questions:**
(a) **Ideal Ammeter Reading (Give your answer in mA):**
\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \text{ mA} \]
(b) **Ideal Voltmeter Reading (Give your answer in volts):**
\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \text{ V} \]
(c) **What If?**
How would the readings in the ammeter (in mA) and voltmeter (in volts) change if the \(4.50 \, \text{V}\) battery was flipped so that its positive terminal was to the right?
- Ideal ammeter: \[ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \text{ mA} \]
- Ideal voltmeter: \[ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \text{ V} \]
---
**Graph/Diagram Additional Details:**
A circuit is depicted showing a configuration of resistors, an ammeter, and a voltmeter, with the configuration of batteries and resistors described above.
---
This problem will calculate the expected readings for the ammeter and voltmeter under specific conditions and explore the effects of a reversed battery polarity.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F31330aa5-a64b-4d2f-80e6-6ea74abb2a34%2F318ad230-1100-491b-944c-7cf5a4534321%2Fw6kkqb_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
