(choose chapter or problem)

A circuit consists of a series combination of 6.00-k? and 5.00-k? resistors connected across a 50.0-V battery having negligible internal resistance. You want to measure the true potential difference (that is, the potential difference without the meter present) across the 5.00-k? resistor using a voltmeter having an internal resistance of 10.0 k?. (a) What potential difference does the voltmeter measure across the 5.00-k? resistor? (b) What is the ?true ?potential difference across this resistor when the meter is not present? (c) By what percentage is the voltmeter reading in error from the true potential difference?
