MCQ
The potential difference between two points in an electric circuit is measured using:
  • A
    Voltmeter, connected in series
  • ✓
    Voltmeter, connected in parallel
  • C
    Ammeter, connected in series
  • D
    Ammeter, connected in parallel
✓

Answer

Correct option: B.
Voltmeter, connected in parallel
(b)
Voltmeter, connected in parallel
Explanation:
A voltmeter is connected in parallel to the circuit points between which the potential difference is to be measured, ensuring it does not significantly alter the current path.
