$A$ $50\, \Omega$ galvanometer gets full-scale deflection when a current of $0.01\, A$ passes through the coil. When it is converted to a $10\, A$ ammeter,the shunt resistance is ........... $\Omega$.

The value of shunt resistance,that allows only $10 \%$ of the main current to pass through a galvanometer of resistance $99 \Omega$,is (in $\Omega$)

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.

The range of an ammeter of resistance $G$ can be increased from $I$ to $nI$ by connecting

In order to pass $10\,\%$ of the main current through a moving coil galvanometer of $99\,\Omega$,the resistance of the required shunt is ............ $\Omega$.
