+//Problem 10.03: Calculate the power dissipated by the voltmeter and by resistor R in Figure 10.9 when (a) R = 250 ohms (b) R = 2 Mohms. Assume that the voltmeter sensitivity (sometimes called figure of merit) is 10 kohms/V.
+
+//initializing the variables:
+fsd = 200; // in volts
+R1 = 250; // in ohms
+R2 = 2E6; // in ohms
+sensitivity = 10000; // in ohms/V
+
+//calculation:
+Rv = sensitivity*fsd
+Iv = V/Rv
+Pv = V*Iv
+I1 = V/R1
+P1 = V*I1
+I2 = V/R2
+P2 = V*I2
