Question 5

During a test of a thermistor, each coulomb of charge that passes through the thermistor transfers 4.2 J of energy.

Which option identifies the meter connection and its reading for measuring the energy transferred per coulomb in the thermistor?

[1]
A

Voltmeter in series with the thermistor; 4.2 V4.2\ \mathrm{V}4.2 V

B

Ammeter in parallel with the thermistor; 4.2 A4.2\ \mathrm{A}4.2 A

C

Voltmeter in parallel with the thermistor; 4.2 V4.2\ \mathrm{V}4.2 V

D

Ammeter in series with the thermistor; 4.2 A4.2\ \mathrm{A}4.2 A
