Two resistors are connected in series across a battery as shown in figure. If a voltmeter of resistance \(2000 \,\Omega\) is used to measure the potential difference across \(500 \,\Omega\) resister, the reading of the voltmeter will be ............... \(V\)

  1. A \(2\)
  2. B \(7\)
  3. C \(8\)
  4. D \(9\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(8\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I=\frac{20}{1000} \,A\) \(V_{1}=I \times 400=\frac{20}{1000} \times 400\) \(=8 \,V\)
