A cell of emf 3.4 V3.4\,\text{V} and internal resistance 3τ3\tau is connected to an ammeter having resistance 2τ2\tau and to an external resistance of 100τ100\tau. When a voltmeter is connected across the 100τ100\tau resistance, the ammeter reading is 0.04 A0.04\,\text{A}. Find the voltage reading by the voltmeter and its resistance. Had the voltmeter been an ideal one what would have been its reading?
