true and false with reason?

Answer 1

Yes, Siemens wattmeter can be used to measure dc power

Siemens wattmeter is an electrodynamometer type watt meter which can measure both AC and DC power.

But in case of dc circuit we don't need a wattmeter because we can measure power easily by taking out voltage and current readings.
