An AC ammeter is used to measure the current in a circuit. When a given direct current passes through the circuit, the AC ammeter reads \(6~\text A.\) When another alternating current passes through the circuit, the AC ammeter reads \(8~\text A.\) Then the reading of this ammeter if DC and AC flow through the circuit simultaneously is:
1. \(10 \sqrt{2}~\text A\) 
2. \(14~\text A\) 
3. \(10~\text A\) 
4. \(15~\text A\)

A non-ideal coil, a capacitor, and an AC-source of RMS voltage \(24~\text V\) are connected in series. By varying the frequency of the source, a maximum RMS current of \(6~\text A\) is observed. If the coil is connected to a DC-battery of EMF \(12~\text V\) and internal resistance \(2~\Omega,\) the current in it in steady-state will be:
1. \(1~\text A\)
2. \(1.5~\text{A}\)
3. \(2~\text A\)
4. \(2.4~\text A\)

Given below are two statements.
Assertion (A): When a current \(I=(3+4 \sin \omega t)\) flows in a wire, then the reading of
a dc ammeter connected in series is \(4\) units.
Reason (R): A dc ammeter measures only the value of the current amplitude.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. Both (A) and (R) are False.
