$A$ galvanometer has a resistance of $25 \, \Omega$ and a maximum of $0.01 \, A$ current can be passed through it. In order to change it into an ammeter of range $10 \, A$, the shunt resistance required is

Assertion : The sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer is increased by placing a suitable magnetic material as a core inside the coil.
Reason : Soft iron has high magnetic permeability and cannot be easily magnetized or demagnetized.

The magnets of two suspended coil galvanometers are of the same strength so that they produce identical uniform magnetic fields in the region of the coils. The coil of the first one is in the shape of a square of side $a$ and that of the second one is circular of radius $\frac{a}{\sqrt{\pi}}.$ When the same current is passed through the coils, the ratio of the torque experienced by the first coil to that experienced by the second one is

The number of turns of the coil of a moving coil galvanometer is increased in order to increase current sensitivity by $50 \%$. The percentage change in voltage sensitivity of the galvanometer will be $..........\%$

Why does a galvanometer not show full-scale deflection after connecting it in a circuit?

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $40 \Omega$ gives a deflection of $10 \text{ divisions per } mA$. There are $50 \text{ divisions}$ on the scale. The maximum current that can pass through the circuit when a shunt resistance of $2 \Omega$ is connected is: (in $\text{ mA}$)
