$A$ multirange current meter can be constructed by using a galvanometer circuit as shown in the figure. We want a current meter that can measure $10 \text{ mA}$,$100 \text{ mA}$,and $1 \text{ A}$ using a galvanometer of resistance $10 \text{ } \Omega$ that produces maximum deflection for a current of $1 \text{ mA}$. Find the values of $S_1, S_2$,and $S_3$ that have to be used.

$A$ galvanometer,whose resistance is $50\, \Omega$,has $25$ divisions. When a current of $4 \times 10^{-4}\, A$ passes through it,its needle deflects by one division. To use this galvanometer as a voltmeter of range $2.5\, V$,it should be connected to a resistance of ....... $\Omega$.

The phosphor bronze strip is used in a moving coil galvanometer because

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $50 \Omega$ is connected to a battery of $3 \text{ V}$ along with a resistance of $2950 \Omega$ in series. $A$ full-scale deflection of $30$ divisions is obtained in the galvanometer. In order to reduce this deflection to $20$ divisions,the resistance in series should be: (in $\Omega$)
