An ammeter and a voltmeter are joined in...

An ammeter and a voltmeter are joined in series to a cell. Their readings are A and V, respectively. If a resistnace is now joined in parallel with the voltmeter

A

both A and V will increase

B

both A and V will decreases

C

A will decreases, V will increases

D

A will increases, V will decreases

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Equivalent resistance so current will increases.
`V_(A)+V_(V)=V`
Due to change `V_(A)` increases so voltmeter reading will decrease.
