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:

  • A
    $2\, \Omega$
  • B
    $0.2\, \Omega$
  • C
    $2\, k\Omega$
  • D
    $20\, \Omega$
