Two resistances of $400\,\Omega $ and $800\,\Omega $ are connected in series with a $6\,volt $ battery of negligible internal resistance. A voltmeter of resistance $10,000\,\Omega $ is used to measure the potential difference across $400\,\Omega $ . The error in the measurement of potential difference (in volt) approximately is
  • A$0.01$
  • B$0.02$
  • C$0.04$
  • D$0.05$
