The current passing through the galvanometer is $4\%$ of the total current in the circuit. If the resistance of the galvanometer is $G$, the shunt resistance $S$ connected across the galvanometer is:

  • A
    $25\text{ G}$
  • B
    $24\text{ G}$
  • C
    $\frac{G}{24}$
  • D
    $\frac{G}{25}$

$A$ shunt of resistance $1\ \Omega$ is connected across a galvanometer of $120\ \Omega$ resistance. $A$ current of $5.5\ A$ flows through the circuit,and the galvanometer shows full-scale deflection. What is the current that would cause full-scale deflection in the galvanometer in the absence of the shunt (in $A$)?
