The measurement of voltmeter in the following circuit is
Options
- A2.25 ~V
- B4.25 ~V
- C2.75 ~V
- D6.25 ~V
Correct answer
A. 2.25 ~V
Step-by-step solution
Resistance of voltmeter and 60 are in parallel. Equivalent resistance = 60 40 60+40 = 60 40 100 =24 For the whole circuit, current I= 6 ~V (40+24) = 6 64 = 3 32 ~A The voltmeter reads potential difference across 60 . aligned & Voltmeter reading =I R_ e q & = 3 32 24= 9 4 ~V =2.25 ~V aligned
