The current $i$ in the circuit shown in the figure is

Two resistances of $400 \Omega$ and $800 \Omega$ are connected in series with a $6 \text{ V}$ battery of negligible internal resistance. $A$ voltmeter of resistance $10000 \Omega$ is used to measure the potential difference across the $400 \Omega$ resistor. The error in the measurement of potential difference in volts is approximately:

An electric current is passed through a circuit containing two wires of the same material,connected in parallel. If the lengths and radii of the wires are in the ratio of $4/3$ and $2/3$ respectively,then the ratio of the currents passing through the wires will be:
