Resistances R(1) and R(2) each 60 are co...

Resistances `R_(1)` and `R_(2)` each 60 are connected in series as shown in figure. The potential difference between `A` and `B` is kept 120 volt. Then what will be tha reading of voltmeter connected between thapoint `C` and `D` if resistance of voltmeter is `120 Omega` ?

A

`48 V`

B

`24 V`

C

`40 V`

D

None

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`I=120/(60+60||120)=1.2` Amp
Reading of voltmeter `1.2xx(60||120)`

`=1.2xx40=48` volt
