< Prev
Next >

A non-ideal voltmeter with finite internal resistance is used to measure the potential difference across one of three resistors arranged in a parallel circuit. How does the measured value compare to the actual potential difference across that resistor before the measurement?

A

It will be lower than the actual voltage

B

It depends on the relative values of all resistors

C

It will be higher than the actual voltage

D

It will be unaffected by the voltmeter’s resistance
