In the given circuit, the voltmeter records 5 ~V . The resistance of the voltmeter (in ohms) is

Step-by-step solution

If R be the resistance of voltmeter, then the equivalent resistance of circuit is aligned R_ e q &= R 100 100+R +50 &= 150 R+5000 R+100 aligned Total current in circuit, i= V R_ eq = 10 150 R+5000 (R+100) = 10(R+100) 150 R+5000 Voltage across 100 resistor, V=i ( R 100 R +100 ) Given, V=5 ~V 5= 10(R+100) 150 R+5000 R 100 R+100 = 1000 R 150 R+5000 750 R+25000=1000 R R=100
