Question

A certain circuit with resistance,R=100 ohm is powered by a direct current source. An ammeter with an internal resistance 1 ohm is connected to the circuit to measure the current.what was the current in the circuit before the ammeter was connected if the ammeter shows 5 ampere?

The diagram in the figure shows a cell of e.m.f. $ε = 2$ volt and internal resistance r = 1 ohm connected to an external resistance R = 4 ohm. The ammeter A measures the current in the circuit and the voltmeter V measures the terminal voltage across the cell. What will be the readings of the ammeter and voltmeter when (i) the key K is open, and (ii) the key K is closed?
