An ideal 18 V source feeds a divider with upper resistance 110000 Ω and lower resistance 14000 Ω. A voltmeter of input resistance 140000 Ω is connected across the lower resistor. Treat it as an ideal resistor with zero bias current and no capacitance. Unloaded output=source×bottom/(top+bottom). With the meter present, replace bottom by bottom×meter/(bottom+meter). All calculations concern this supplied DC model.
Calculate the equivalent loaded lower-branch resistance in Ω. Keep intermediate values unrounded; round the final result to four decimal places if necessary.
