A voltmeter of resistance `200 Omega` is used to measure `p.d` across resistances `100 Omega` and `200 Omega`.
.

A

The voltmeter reads `1 V`, when connected across `100 Omega`

B

The voltmeter reads `2 V`, when connected across `200 Omega`

C

Both (1) and (2)

D

None

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C


`V_1 = (200//3)/(200 + (200)/(3)) xx 4`
`= 1 V`

`V_2 = 2 V`.
