$A$ galvanometer of resistance $50 \Omega$ gives a full-scale deflection for a current of $5 \times 10^{-4} \text{ A}$. The resistance that should be connected in series with the galvanometer to read $3 \text{ V}$ is: (in $\Omega$)

We have a galvanometer of resistance $25\,\Omega$. It is shunted by a $2.5\,\Omega$ wire. The part of the total current that flows through the galvanometer is given as:

When a galvanometer is shunted by a resistance $S$,its current capacity increases $n$ times. If the same galvanometer is shunted by another resistance $S^{\prime}$,its current capacity increases to $n^{\prime}$. The value of $n^{\prime}$ in terms of $n, S$ and $S^{\prime}$ is

To convert a galvanometer into an ammeter,one needs to connect a

$A$ current of $10^{-3} \ A$ is flowing through a resistance of $1000 \ \Omega$. To measure the correct potential difference across this resistance,a voltmeter must be used whose resistance should be:
