A circuit consists of a series combination of 5.50 −kΩ and 5.00 −kΩ 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 −kΩ resistor using a voltmeter having an internal resistance of 10.0 kΩ.

Part A
What potential difference does the voltmeter measure across the 5.00 −kΩ resistor?
Part B
What is the true potential difference across this resistor when the meter is not present?
Part C
By what percentage is the voltmeter reading in error from the true potential difference?
