A student used the set up given here to study the dependence of current (I) on the potential difference (V) across a resistor.
He kept the contact C in four different positions marked as P,Q,R and S in the figure. On calculating the values of the ratio `(V)/(I)` for his four readings, he would find that the value of this ratio :

A

for contact at point P is `(1)/(4)th` of that of contact at point S.

B

for contact at point Q is `(2)/(4)th` of that for contact at point S.

C

for contact at point R is `(3)/(4)th` of that for contact at point S.

D

is the same for all the four readings

To study the dependence of current (I) on the potential difference (V) across a resistor, two students used the two sets ups shown in figs (A) and (B) respectively. They kept the contact J in four different positions, marked (a), (b), (c), (d) in the two figures. For the two students, their Ammeter and Voltmeter readings will be minimum when the contact J is in the position :
