Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.
A circuit you’re building needs a voltmeter that goes from 0 V to a full-scale reading of 5.0 V. Unfortunately, the only meter in the storeroom is an ammeter that goes from 0 μA to a full-scale reading of 500 μA. It is possible to use this meter to measure voltages by putting it in a measuring circuit as shown. What value of R must you use so that the meter will go to full scale when the potential difference ΔV is 5.0 V? Assume that the ammeter is ideal.
