Shunt wire should be . . . . . . .

Assertion : The sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer is increased by placing a suitable magnetic material as a core inside the coil.
Reason : Soft iron has high magnetic permeability and cannot be easily magnetized or demagnetized.

Two identical galvanometers are converted into a voltmeter and a millivoltmeter. As compared to the series resistance of the voltmeter,the series resistance of the millivoltmeter will be

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $40\,\Omega$ gives a deflection of $5\, \text{divisions}$ per $mA$. There are $50\, \text{divisions}$ on the scale. The maximum current that can pass through it when a shunt resistance of $2\,\Omega$ is connected is ................ $mA$.

In a suspended-type moving coil galvanometer,a quartz suspension is used because:

If only $2 \%$ of the total current passes through an ammeter having a coil of resistance $R$,then the resistance of the shunt of the ammeter is:
