A voltmeter of resistance 500 Ω can measure a maximum voltage of 5 V. How can it be made to measure a maximum voltage of 100 V?

Answer»

Data : G = 500 Ω, 

Vg = 5 V, 

V = 100 V 

To increase the range of the voltmeter by a factor p = \(\cfrac{V}{V_g}\), a resistance R should be connected in series with it.

Rs = G(p – 1) = 500\(\left(\cfrac{100}5-1 \right)\)

= 9500 Ω
