Voltage Source
The goal: to provide output voltage that is
independent of the load resistance.

Voltmeters
The goal: to measure the voltage difference across
an element (ideally, without affecting the circuit due
to the voltmeter connection).
An ideal voltmeter:
A. has = and should be connected in parallel with
the circuit element being measured.
Battery Tester
Can we use a
voltmeter (very
high r) to test the
freshness of a
battery?
The voltmeter will measure
provided . But can be as high
as 106 107 , and even if ~103
104 , we wont notice the battery
aging.

Ammeters
The goal: to measure the current in a circuit element
(ideally, without affecting the current due to the
ammeter connection).
An ideal ammeter:
A. has = and should be connected in parallel with
the circuit element being measured.

Example
We dont need to know the actual direction of
the current: if we get the negative value of I,
that would mean that the current flows in the
direction opposite to the direction of travel.
