The resistance of a galvanometer is $50\,\Omega$ and the current required to give full-scale deflection is $100\,\mu A$. In order to convert it into an ammeter reading up to $10\,A$,it is necessary to put a resistance of

$A$ galvanometer whose resistance is $120 \, \Omega$ gives full-scale deflection with a current of $0.05 \, A$. To enable it to read a maximum current of $10 \, A$,a shunt resistance is added in parallel with it. The resistance of the ammeter so formed is .............. $\Omega$.

$A$ galvanometer has a resistance of $100 \, \Omega$ and a full-scale range of $50 \, \mu A$. It can be used as a voltmeter or as a high-range ammeter provided a resistance is added to it. Pick the correct range and resistance combination.

Consider the following two statements $A$ and $B$ and identify the correct choice given in the answers.
$A$. Duddell's thermo-galvanometer is suitable to measure direct current only.
$B$. Thermopile can measure temperature differences of the order of $10^{-3} \, ^\circ C$.

The resistance of an ammeter is $13\, \Omega$ and its scale is graduated for a current up to $100\, A$. After an additional shunt has been connected to this ammeter,it becomes possible to measure currents up to $750\, A$ by this meter. The value of the shunt resistance is:
