    An ammeter and a voltmeter of resistance R are connected in series to an electric cell of negligible internal resistance. Their readings are A and V respectively.  If another resistance R is connected in parallel with the voltmeter [EAMCET 2000; KCET 2002]

    A)         Both A and V will increase                                          

    B)         Both A and V will decrease                                        

    C)         A will decrease and V will increase

    D)         A will increase and V will decrease

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                                             After connecting a resistance R in parallel with voltmeter its effective resistance decreases. Hence less voltage appears across it i.e. V will decreases. Since overall resistance decreases so more current will flow i.e. A will increase.
