$A$ galvanometer of $10 \,\Omega$ resistance gives full scale deflection with $0.01 \, A$ of current. It is to be converted into an ammeter for measuring $10 \, A$ current. The value of shunt resistance required will be

  • A
    $\frac{10}{999} \,\Omega$
  • B
    $0.1 \,\Omega$
  • C
    $0.5 \,\Omega$
  • D
    $1.0 \,\Omega$
