1)

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, then 


A) both A and V will increases

B) both A and V will decrease

C) A will decrease and V will increase

D) A will increase and V will decrease

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

 The effective resistance will decrease when resistance R is connected  in parallel with a voltmeter

According to Ohm's law , $V=IR$, or $R=\frac{V}{I}$

 Here, as R decreases, so V decreases and I should increase
