At one of the temperatures, the current in a circuit component is estimated to be 150 mA150\text{ mA}150 mA.
The student has a choice of four analog ammeters, A, B, C, and D, with different scales and ranges as shown below:
- Ammeter A: scale range 0 to 50 mA0\text{ to }50\text{ mA}0 to 50 mA
- Ammeter B: scale range 0 to 100 mA0\text{ to }100\text{ mA}0 to 100 mA
- Ammeter C: scale range 0 to 250 mA0\text{ to }250\text{ mA}0 to 250 mA
- Ammeter D: scale range 0 to 1000 mA0\text{ to }1000\text{ mA}0 to 1000 mA
Which ammeter should the student use to measure a current of 150 mA150\text{ mA}150 mA accurately? Explain your choice.
