Imagine that you connect a 10 ohm resistor and a 1 megaohm resistor in series to a battery. If you use a voltmeter that has a 1 megaohm internal resistance to measure the voltage across each resistor. Which measurement will affected most by the internal resistance of the ohm meter?
|
the voltage across the 10 ohm resistor. |
||
|
the voltage across the 1 megaohm resistor. |
||
|
both measurement will be affected the same. |
Since voltmeter is connected parallel across each resistor. In parallel combination, voltage across each resistance is same . Hence after connecting voltmeter across each resistance there will be no change in voltage across each resiatares.
Hence last option is correct .

You have a 10 ohm resistor connected in series with an ammeter. The voltage applied to the whole circuit is 1.2 volts. At the same time you have a voltmeter connected across the 10 ohm resistor and voltmeter reads 0.9 volts. The circuit draws a total of 0.5 amps. Can you determine resistance of the ammeter?
When you connect a standalone battery to a voltmeter the voltmeter reads 5 V. (a) Assuming the voltmeter has a very high resistance, what is the approximate elec- tromotive force in the battery? (b) When you hook the same battery up to a circuit with a 15 Ohm resistor, you hook up the voltmeter to read the terminal voltage across the battery and it now reads 4.688 V instead of 5 V. What is the internal resistance of the battery?
A 6.0 V battery is connected to two 7.70 kilo-Ohm resistors in series. An ammeter of internal resistance 0.570 Ohm measures the current and at the same time a voltmeter with internal resistance 15.2 kilo-Ohm measures the voltage across one of the 7.70 kilo-Ohm resistors in the circuit. What does the ammeter read? What does the voltmeter read?
