$A$ galvanometer of resistance $50 \Omega$ is connected to a battery of $3 \text{ V}$ along with a resistance of $2950 \Omega$ in series. $A$ full-scale deflection of $30$ divisions is obtained in the galvanometer. In order to reduce this deflection to $20$ divisions,the resistance in series should be: (in $\Omega$)

  • A
    $5550$
  • B
    $5050$
  • C
    $4450$
  • D
