    The measurement of voltmeter in the given circuit is :

    A)  6.0 V  

    B)                                         4.0 V                    

    C)         3.4 V                    

    D)         2.4 V

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    From the figure the resistance \[40\,\Omega \] and \[60\,\Omega \] are connected in parallel combination. Hence their equivalent resistance \[R=\frac{60\times 40}{60+40}=24\,\Omega \] Hence current in the circuit is \[I=\frac{E}{R+r}=\frac{6}{24+0}=\frac{6}{24}=\frac{1}{4}A\] Now potential difference across voltmeter \[=I\times R=\frac{1}{4}\times 24=6.0\,V\]
