Solution

The correct option is B False
  1. As no current should flow through the voltmeter, the internal resistance of the ideal voltmeter is infinity.
  2. If the voltmeter has a low resistance, the current will divide and flow through it as well.
  3. This will result in inaccurate or undesirable results across the device.

So the statement is false, a voltmeter has infinite resistance.
