An ammeter A of finite resistance and a resistor R are joined in series to an ideal cell C. A potentiometer P is joined in parallel to R. The ammeter reading is I0 and the potentiometer reading is V0 . P is now replaced by a voltmeter of finite resistance. The ammeter reading now is I and the voltmeter reading is V.


It can be concluded that:

1. I>I0, V<V0

2. I>I0, V=V0

3. I=I0, V<V0

4. I<I0, V=V0
