Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

Assertion $A:$ For measuring the potential difference across a resistance of $600\,\Omega$, the voltmeter with resistance $1000\,\Omega$ will be preferred over voltmeter with resistance $4000\,\Omega$.

Reason $R:$ Voltmeter with higher resistance will draw smaller current than voltmeter with lower resistance.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

  • A$A$ is not correct but $R$ is correct
  • BBoth $A$ and $R$ are correct and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$
  • CBoth $A$ and $R$ are correct but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A$
  • D$A$ is correct but $R$ is not correct
