Ammeter is in series withe circuit
Voltmeter is in parallel with the circuit

voltage is to be measured only across the circuit...(i.e two ends of the circuit)

Voltage remains the same in the elements which are connected in parallel. Current remains same in series.

Voltmeter has high resistance. Hence it should be connected in parallel.

voltage defines potential differnce between 2 points ...

Voltmeter should connect always to parallel to ckt because is has high resietance.

Voltage remins same in parallel combination. If we connect in series their will be drop in circuit across voltmeter.

Voltage drop is same in parallel paths.

*voltmeter is used to measure voltage.
*if you want to measure V then yo ve to connect it in parallel since V remains same in parallel paths.
*so in order to avoid flow of current through voltmeter (coz it may lead to reduction of V) it is designed in such a way so that it gives very high impedance (ideally infinity).

The galvanometer can be converted into voltmeter by connecting the ckt in parallel. For ammeter this should be in series. :)))))
