  • When a voltage measuring device is connected to a.c. mains the meter shows the steady input voltage of 220 V . This means

    A
    input voltage cannot be ac voltage, but a dc voltage.
    B
    maximum input voltage is 220 V
    C
    the meter reads voltage not V but `lt V^(2)gt` and is calibrated to read `sqrt(lt V^(2)gt)`.
    D
    the pointer of the meter is stuck by some mechanical defect.
