How do I solve for the error?
An ammeter can be used to measure the current flowing through a
resistor in a circuit. Determine the error in measuring the current
flowing through R1 when an ammeter with internal resistance Ra =
0.1 ohms is used. (Assume R1 = 17.0 ohms and R2 = 29.0 ohms, and
the error equals I – I’). Your answer should be in
I tried solving this the first time and got .008, which was wrong. How do you do this correctly?
