The emf of a cell of internal resistance \(2 \Omega\) is measured using a voltmeter of resistance \(998 \Omega\). The error in the emf measured is

  1. A \(0.4 \%\)
  2. B \(4 \%\)
  3. C \(2 \%\)
  4. D \(0.2 \%\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(0.2 \%\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The reading of voltmeter, \(\begin{aligned} & V=I R \\ & \Rightarrow V=\left(\frac{E}{998+2}\right) \times 998 \\ & =0.998 \mathrm{E} \end{aligned}\) \(\therefore \%\) error in emf,…
