A voltmeter is generally used to measure the potential difference between two ends of a conductor in an electric circuit. How is a voltmeter generally connected in an electric circuit?
A
Parallel
B
Series
C
Parallel and series
D
May be parallel or series
Correct Option:
A
Explanation
A voltmeter measures the potential difference between two points, so it must be connected in parallel across the component. Its very high resistance prevents it from significantly disturbing the circuit.
