26. An electromechanical meter is composed of several dials inside and has a pointer in each. How many dials are there in all?

A. 4 dials
B. 5 dials
C. 6 dials
D. 3 dials

Answer :

An electromechanical meter typically consists of dials that display information such as readings or measurements. In this case, the question mentions that there is a pointer in each dial.

To determine the total number of dials in the electromechanical meter, we consider the fact that each dial has a pointer. Therefore, for each pointer, there must be a corresponding dial. This means that the number of pointers is equal to the number of dials.

So, based on the information provided in the question, the correct answer is:

B. 5 dials

Each pointer corresponds to one dial, resulting in a total of 5 dials in the electromechanical meter.
