Measuring Current for x0.1 Range Potentiometer Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Measuring Current = Total Voltage/(Total Measuring Resistance+Range Resistance 2)
I_m = V/(R_m+R₂)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Measuring Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Measuring Current involves scaling the measurement so that the actual current is one-tenth of the displayed value.
Total Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - Total Voltage refers to the voltage supplied across the entire resistive element of the potentiometer, usually between the two end terminals.
Total Measuring Resistance - (Measured in Ohm) - Total Measuring Resistance refers to the total resistance between the two end terminals of the potentiometer's resistive element.
Range Resistance 2 - (Measured in Ohm) - Range Resistance 2 refers to the specific resistance added in series with the measuring instrument to extend its measurement range.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Voltage: 32.5 Volt --> 32.5 Volt No Conversion Required
Total Measuring Resistance: 3.25 Ohm --> 3.25 Ohm No Conversion Required
Range Resistance 2: 12.75 Ohm --> 12.75 Ohm No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

I_m = V/(R_m+R₂) --> 32.5/(3.25+12.75)

Evaluating ... ...

I_m = 2.03125
