Question 26
Medium

Two resistors A A\,A and B B\,B are connected in series with a power supply of emf 40 V and negligible internal resistance. The resistors are made from wire of the same material. The wires have the same length. A A\,A uses wire of diameter 3d 3d\,3d and B B\,B uses wire of diameter ddd.

Circuit diagram showing a 40 V supply connected to resistors A and B in series, with a voltmeter connected in parallel across resistor B.

What is the reading on the voltmeter?

4 V4\text{ V}4 V

10 V10\text{ V}10 V

30 V30\text{ V}30 V

36 V36\text{ V}36 V
