$A$ moving coil galvanometer is converted into an ammeter reading up to $0.03\,A$ by connecting a shunt of resistance $4r$ across it,and into an ammeter reading up to $0.06\,A$ when a shunt of resistance $r$ is connected across it. What is the maximum current which can be sent through this galvanometer if no shunt is used?

  • A
    $0.01$
  • B
    $0.02$
  • C
    $0.03$
  • D
    $0.04$

The deflection in a galvanometer falls to $\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{th}$ of its initial value when it is shunted by a resistor of $3 \Omega$. If an additional shunt of $2 \Omega$ is connected in parallel to the earlier shunt,the deflection in the galvanometer falls to:

$A$ $50\,\Omega$ resistance is connected to a battery of $5\,V$. $A$ galvanometer of resistance $100\,\Omega$ is to be used as an ammeter to measure current through the resistance. For this,a resistance $r_s$ is connected to the galvanometer. Which of the following connections should be employed if the measured current is within $1\%$ of the current without the ammeter in the circuit?

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $G$ is shunted by a resistance of $5 \Omega$. To keep the main current in the circuit unchanged,the resistance to be put in series with the same galvanometer is

To determine the resistance $G$ of a galvanometer by the half-deflection method,a battery of $emf$ $V$ and a series resistance $R$ are used to produce a deflection $\theta$ in the galvanometer. If a shunt resistance $S$ is connected in parallel to the galvanometer to reduce the deflection to $\theta/2$,then $G, R$,and $S$ are related by the equation:

$A$ galvanometer has resistance '$G$' and range '$V_g$'. How much resistance is required to read voltage up to '$V$' volt?
