The resistance of an ideal voltmeter is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The resistance of an ideal voltmeter is
A. Low
B. Zero
C. Same as ammeter
D. Infinite
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Voltmeter connected parallel, should draw minimum current, so ideally infinite resistance. Ammeter connected series, ideally zero resistance. Galvanometer moderate. Practical voltmeter has high but finite resistance.

Which of the following is an example of the Doppler effect?
A. Fusion of nuclei
B. Echo of sound
C. Change in frequency of siren as ambulance passes
D. Bending of light around corners

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Doppler effect: apparent change in frequency due to relative motion. Siren pitch changes as it approaches/recedes. Echo is reflection. Bending is diffraction. Fusion is nuclear reaction.

LED working principle:
A. Phosphorescence
B. Electroluminescence
C. Incandescence
D. Fluorescence

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
LED: electroluminescence - electron-hole recombination in semiconductor emits photons. Incandescence: thermal radiation (bulbs); Fluorescence: UV excitation. Memory tip: 'LED = semiconductor light emission; no filament, efficient'. Modern device principle frequently tested in competitive exams linking physics to technology.
