(i) In fig. `6.7`, find the potential difference berween the points `A` and `B`.
(ii) Now we wish to measure this potential difference by using a voltemter of resistance `2 k Omega`. Find the reading of the voltumeter and percentage error.
(ii) Solve part (ii) if the voltumter were of resistance `20 k Omega`. What conculsion do you draw from the results you get in the above parts?
