OpenStudy (kropot72):

The minimum current through the ammeter is zero amps and the maximum is 2 amps.

how did u get the max current?

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Did you just post up your exam? Lol.

OpenStudy (kropot72):

The maximum possible current occurs when the moving contact of the variable resistor is at the extreme right of its travel. Then the 6 ohm resistor and the ammeter are connected in series directly across the 12V battery. \[I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{12}{6}\ A\]
