P.1.28. The below figure shows an ammeter (AM) and voltmeter connected to measure the current

ammeter the reading is positive and when the current leave the positive terminal then the reading is
negative. The actual voltage polarity is positive at the positive terminal of the VM, the reading is
positive; otherwise the reading is negative. (Actually for the connection shown below, the ammeter
shows the sum of current in element A and a very small current taken by the voltmeter. For the
purpose of this question assume the current through the voltmeter is negligible). Find the power for
