Class 12PhysicsMoving Charges and MagnetismThe Moving Coil Galvanometer (Sensitivity) and Ammeter and Voltmeter Conversion
Medium$A$ galvanometer having a coil resistance $100 \; \Omega$ gives a full-scale deflection when a current of $1 \; mA$ is passed through it. What is the value of the resistance in $k\Omega$ which can convert this galvanometer into a voltmeter giving full-scale deflection for a potential difference of $10 \; V$?
- A$9.9$
- B$8.9$
