   Although an ideal voltmeter has an infinite internal resistance, this theoretical ideal is usually not met in practice. The voltmeter in the Figure has an internal resistance of 7 x 109 Ω and is used to measure the voltage across the resistor R2 as shown. Attaching this non-ideal voltmeter decreases the voltage across R2. Calculate the magnitude of this decrease using an emf of 16 V and R1 = R2 = 200 kΩ.
