The switch was closed for a very long time. When a person tried to open it abruptly it causes an electric arc and damages the d'Arsonval voltimeter. Why did this large voltage was created?
We want to make a resistivity measurement. How should we connect the probes of the multimeter? Drag the connector images to
the correct locations and "Not Connected" images to the rest.

The convention for voltmeters is to use a black wire for the negative reference terminal and a red wire for the positive reference terminal.
Explain why two wires are required to measure a voltage.
If the wires into the voltmeter are swapped by accident, what will happen during the next measurement?
