    An ammeter $A$ of finite resistance, and a resistor $R$ are joined in series to an ideal cell $C$. $A$ potentiometer $P$ is joined in parallel to $R$. The ammeter reading is $I_0$ and the potentiometer reading is $V_0$. $P$ is now replaced by a voltmeter of finite resistance. The ammeter reading now is $I$ and the voltmeter reading is $V$.
