If you make a mistake in polarity when measuring the value of DC voltage in a circuit with a digital VOM, what will happen?

Answer:

Changes the sign of the measured electrical potential

Explanation:

If you have a positive test charge q_o with an electric field, and it moves from point A to point B, keeping the balance without exception, then the work that the agent that carries the load has to do is equal to:

V_B-V_A=V_B_A=\frac{W_A_B}{q_o}

Which is called electric potential difference.

This work can be a negative, positive or null value, and the electric potential corresponding to B is less, greater or equal respectively to the potential of A.

On a VOM digital multimeter the black color is always connected inside the pin or connector marked COM, short for COMMON (Common/Ground/0 V) and the red tip is connected inside the V pin (Highest electrical potential )

Let:

V_B=Highest\hspace{3} electrical\hspace{3} potential\\V_A=Lowest\hspace{3} electrical\hspace{3} potential

Also, let's assume:

V_B=12V\\V_A=1

So, if you meaure the voltage with the correct polarity, the VOM will show you this result:

V_B-V_A=V_B_A=12-1=11V

On the other hand if you make a mistake in polarity, the VOM will show you the same result but with a different sign:

V_A-V_B=V_A_B=1-12=-11V

 Nothing happens. Just reverse the probes of multimeter & measure it again, this time around it should come positive

zhuklara [117]

The part of the mind which Sigmund Freud would say caused Tua to cut line is: the Id.

<h3>Who is Sigmund Freud?</h3>

Sigmund Freud was an Austrian physiologist, neurologist, medical doctor who developed the personality theory through which he strongly argued that a person’s personality (human psyche) is structured into three (3) key parts and these include:

  • The Id (instincts).
  • Ego (reality).
  • Superego (morality).

According to Sigmund Freud, the Id is most focused on an individual's basic needs, such as feeding himself or herself.

In this context, we can infer and logically deduce that the part of the mind which Sigmund Freud would say caused Tua to cut line is the Id.

Comparison: How did the patterns of settlement differ among the Spanish, English, French, and Dutch immigrants?
SashulF [63]
Spanish settlement began in the early 16th century and was a massive and intensive enterprise organized, subsidized and overseen by the Spanish Crown, whereas English, Dutch and French settlement of the New World began about a hundred years after the Spanish effort and was a more timid and tentative affair; for instance, when the first successful English settlement in North America was founded —Jamestown colony in present-day Virginia in 1607— the Spanish colony of Puerto Rico had had governors and organized governments for a hundred years and when the Pilgrims landed in Plymouth rock in present-day Massachusetts in 1620, Puerto Rico’s capital city of San Juan was celebrating its first century of existence. English settlement patterns changed substantially later on and the Thirteen Colonies were very successful enterprises but in other parts of the New World the English —or British— built upon Spanish success. Jamaica was founded as a SPANISH colony and remained one until the British conquered it in the late 17th century; Trinidad was founded as a SPANISH colony until the British conquered it in 1797 during the French Revolutionary Wars. Florida also started out as a Spanish colony, was taken over by the British at the end of the Seven years War (1756–1763), was returned to Spain at the end of the American Revolution —in payment for Spain’s assistance to the Americans— and was purchased by the US from Spain in 1819. Belize —British Honduras— was founded on marginal land that the Spanish Crown didn’t really care for in Central America. The Dutch concerned themselves with much smaller settlements in the Lesser Antilles and Dutch Guiana —present day Suriname— and the French, even though they settled over a much larger area, comprising Canada and the Louisiana territory, did not treat human settlement over such a large area with the same energy and dedication that the British did, such that by the time of the Seven Years War —known in the US and Canada as the “French and Indian War”— the entire European population of ALL of French Canada —not counting Native Americans— was only 80,000 and that for the Louisiana territory —again, not counting Native Americans— was perhaps another 20,000 AT MOST—at a time when the Thirteen (British) colonies in North America had a total population of two and a half million.
