Current Electricity MCQ for NEET

Current electricity or electric current is defined as the rate of flow of electric charges. In an electric circuit, these charges are carried by the electrons in the conductors. Ampere is the SI unit of electric current.

(d) The electrolyte used in the cell

Answer: (d) The electrolyte used in the cell

2. A potentiometer is considered a versatile and accurate device to make an electrical measurement of EMF. Why?

(a) Because the method involves a combination

(b) There are cells involved

(c) Because of potential gradients

(d) As there is no flow of current through the galvanometer

Answer: (d) As there is no flow of current through the galvanometer
