You're using your meter to make voltage measurements in the circuit shown in the figure above. Your meter is connected between points A and C, and you're getting a reading of 6 V on the display. What can you conclude from this reading? A. Switch S1 is open. B. Resistors R1 and R2 have equal resistance values. C. Resistor R2 has a resistance value that's twice the value of either R1. D. Switch S1 is closed.

Answer:

A. Switch S1 is Open

Step-by-step explanation:

I attach the missing figure in the image below

Since you are getting a reading of 6V which is the maximum voltage of your circuit, you can conclude that

A. Switch S1 is Open

- If the Switch S1 was closed, we would be getting a reading of 0V. This is not the case.

- Because the switch is open, there is no current going through the circuit and therefore there is not any voltage drop across the resistors. This is why their values don't affect the reading.
