Class 12PhysicsMoving Charges and MagnetismThe Moving Coil Galvanometer (Sensitivity) and Ammeter and Voltmeter Conversion
Medium$A$ voltmeter has a resistance of $G \, \Omega$ and a range of $V \, \text{volts}$. The value of the resistance that must be connected in series to convert it into a voltmeter of range $nV \, \text{volts}$ is:
- A$nG$
- B$(n - 1)G$
- C$\frac{G}{n}$
- D$\frac{G}{n - 1}$
