$A$ galvanometer has resistance '$G$' and range '$V_g$'. How much resistance is required to read voltage up to '$V$' volt?

  • A
    $G\left(\frac{V}{V_g}-1\right)$
  • B
    $G\left(\frac{V+V_g}{V}\right)$
  • C
    $G\left(\frac{V-V_g}{V}\right)$
  • D
    $GV_g$

$A$ 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 $A$)?

How can we convert a galvanometer into an ammeter?

By ammeter,which of the following can be measured?

The deflection in a moving coil galvanometer of resistance $45 \Omega$ falls from $30$ divisions to $3$ divisions. The length of the shunt wire required to convert the galvanometer into an ammeter is [specific resistance of the material of the shunt wire $= 5 \times 10^{-7} \Omega m$ and area of cross-section of the wire $= 4 \times 10^{-7} m^2$].
