$A$ shunt of resistance $1\,\Omega$ is connected across a galvanometer of $120\,\Omega$ resistance. $A$ total current of $5.5\,A$ is passed through the combination,which gives full-scale deflection in the galvanometer. The current that would give full-scale deflection in the absence of the shunt is nearly ............... $A$.

The circular coil of a galvanometer has $50$ turns. The coil has a radius of $1 \ cm$. The coil is placed in a radial magnetic field of $0.010 \ T$. The torsion coefficient of the spring on which the coil hangs is $3 \times 10^{-7} \ N-m-rad^{-1}$. Determine the deflection of the galvanometer's pointer if the current through the coil is $1.0 \ mA$. (in $^{\circ}$)

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $100 \Omega$ requires $10 \mu A$ current for full-scale deflection. If a shunt resistance of $1 \Omega$ is connected in parallel to convert it into an ammeter, what is the minimum current required to obtain full-scale deflection (in $\text{ mA}$)?

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:

$A$ milliammeter of range $10\, mA$ and resistance $9\, \Omega$ is joined in a circuit as shown. The meter gives full-scale deflection for current $I$ when $A$ and $B$ are used as its terminals,i.e.,current enters at $A$ and leaves at $B$ ($C$ is left isolated). The value of $I$ is
