Question

[3]2] Resistors X and Y are connected in series with a 6.0 V battery of negligible intemal

Answer 1

Answer:

B) 1.5 V

Explanation:

With the voltmeter in place, the lower circuit equivalent resistance is

Re 1/(1/R + 1/(R/2)) = R/3

so the voltmeter will read

6.0(R/3 / (R + R/3)) = 1.5 V
