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.

Option: 1

Option: 2

Both and are correct but is not the correct explanation of


Option: 3

is not correct but is correct


Option: 4

To measure the potential difference between two point, voltmeter is used. But this voltmeter should be with higher resistance so that it cannot draw any current.
Now to measure the potential difference across 600 \Omega voltmeter of 4000 \Omega is much better than 1000 \Omega voltmeter.
