The instantaneous voltages at three terminals marked X,Y and Z are given by VX=V0sinωt,VY=V0sinωt+2π3 and VZ=V0sinωt+4π3. An ideal voltmeter is configured to read rms value of the potential difference between its terminals. It is connected between points X and Y and then between Y and Z. The reading(s) of the voltmeter will be
