The resistance of an ideal voltmeter is

Which statement/statement is/are correct? 1. An ammeter is connected in series in a circuit and a voltmeter is connected in parallel. 2. An ammeter has a high resistance. 3. A voltmeter has a low resistance.

Assertion: A voltmeter must b e connected in parallel in a circuit and it should have a high resistance. Reason: The voltmeter in the circuit must not affect the P.D. it is to measure.

(A) : Voltmeter put across a part of the circuit, it reads slightly less than the original voltage. (R) : Voltmeter is always connected in parallel in circuit across which voltage is to be measured.

What result do you expect in above experiment if by mistake, ammeter is connected in parallel with voltmeter and resistance as shown in figure? .

By mistake, a voltmeter is connected in series and an ammeter is connected in parallel, with a resistance in an electrical circuit. What will happen to the instruments?

Assertion : If by mistake, a voltmeter is connected in series, then circuit will burn. Reason : Current will drastically decrease in the circuit.

What is the resistance of voltmeter shown in the circuit ?

In the circuit shown in the figure, the voltmeter reading is

An ammeter and a voltmeter are connected in series to a battery with an emf xi = 6.0 V . When a certain resistance is connected in parallel with the voltmeter, the readings of the latter decreases eta = 2.0 times, whereas the readings of the ammeter increase the same number of times, Find the voltmeter readings after the connection of the resistance.
