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. \(15~\text A\)
