    MultiMeter Help!

    The resistor in this circuit will have current flowing through it... I don't get the point you're trying to make here.

    You make a reasonable argument. However, the voltage would not be set in motion until current comes into play, thus V=IR. So, I'm still wondering...

    Well, that depends on whether the voltage is induced or a direct short. Now we're moving on from Georg Ohm to Daniel Faraday, nice!! If the water's...

    Actually, there is no current flow here. It's not "flowing" to ground if ground and the water have the same voltage potential. Think of two buckets...

    There is current here because the battery has an internal resistance. Although, there is very little current, there is SOME. Remember ohm's law?...

    OK, prove it. :P I can prove otherwise using ohm's law: Volts = amperes x ohms With Zero amps, you have zero volts. In order to have a...
