For measurement of potential difference, potentiometer is perferred in comparison to voltmeter because

A potential of 400 V is applied at the point A . The value of resistance R_(1)=1000 Omega , R_(2)=2000Omega and R_(3)=1000Omega are connected between points A and G as shown in the figure. Point G is earthed. The measured potential difference by an ideal voltmeter connected across R_(2) is

10^(-3) amp is flowing through a resistance of 1000 Omega . To measure the correct potential difference, the voltmeter is to be used to which the resistance should be

Two resistance of 400 Omega and 800 Omega are connected in series with 6 volt battery of negligible internal resistance. A voltmeter of resistance 10,000 Omega is used to measure the potential difference across 400 Omega . The error in measurement of potential difference in volts approximatley is

Potentiometer is better for measuring the potential difference than the voltmeter because

The unit for measuring potential difference is:
