The resistance of an ideal voltmeter is ______________?
Correct answer: B. Infinite
- A. Low
- B. Infinite
- C. Zero
- D. High
Explanation
An ideal voltmeter must draw no current from the circuit, so its resistance is infinite. A merely high resistance describes a practical voltmeter, not the ideal case.
