Consider the two following statements $A$ and $B$, and identify the correct choice given in the answers: $(A)$ Duddell's thermo galvanometer is suitable to measure direct current only. $(B)$ Thermopile can measure temperature differences of the order of $10^{-3} {}^{\circ}C$.

An ammeter has a range of $1 \, A$ without a shunt. The range can be varied by using different shunt resistances. The graph between shunt resistance $(S)$ and range $(I)$ will have the nature of which curve shown in the figure?

When a shunt resistance of $4r$ is connected to a galvanometer,it becomes an ammeter that can measure $0.03 \, A$. When a shunt resistance of $r$ is connected to the same galvanometer,it becomes an ammeter that can measure $0.06 \, A$. What is the current capacity $(i_g)$ of the galvanometer in $A$?
