Q194 / 225 · JEE Main 2004 · Physics

Alternating current can not be measured by D.C. ammeter because

A
A.C. cannot pass through D.C.
B
A.C. changes direction
Correct answer
C
average value of current for complete cycle is zero
D
D.C. ammeter will get damaged.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
