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

Alternating current cannot be measured by a DC ammeter because:
1. AC cannot pass through DC Ammeter.
2. AC changes direction.
3. Average value of current for the complete cycle is zero.
4. DC Ammeter will get damaged.
