| ASSERTION: The resistance of a voltmeter is very small as compared to the resistance of the galvanometer, from which it is obtained. |
| REASON: The voltmeters are connected in series to the condenser across which potential difference is to be measured. |
A) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
B) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C) If assertion is true but reason is false.
D) If both assertion and reason are false.
E) If assertion is false but reason is true.
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
In practice resistance of voltmeter is very large as compared to the value of resistance of galvanometer. The voltmeter is connected in parallel to the conductor across which potential difference to be measured. It is because, as the voltmeter will not practically draw any current due to its high resistance, the current through will not change.
