A 90000-V Battery Is Used to Produce a Current Through Two

question 21

Multiple Choice

A 9.0000-V battery is used to produce a current through two identical resistors in series,each having a resistance of 150.00 kΏ.A handheld digital multimeter (DMM) is used to measure the potential difference across the first resistor by placing probe leads at each end of this resistor.Typical DMMs have an internal resistance of 10 M $\varOmega$ .What is the potential difference that the DMM measures across the first resistor?

• A)4.500 V
• B)4.467 V
• C)4.534 V
• D)4.425 V
• E)4.628 V
