The resistances 500 Ω and 1000 Ω are connected in series with a battery of 1.5 volt. The voltage across the 1000 Ωresistance is measured by a voltmeter having a resistance of 1000 Ω. The reading in the voltmeter would be :

a
1.5 volt
b
1.0 volt
c
0.75 volt
d
0.5 volt

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Current through battery = 1.5500+500=1.5 mAVoltage drop across 500 Ω=1.5 x 10-3500=0.75 VSo reading of voltmeter = 1.5 - 0.75 = 0. 75 V
