$A$ galvanometer has a current range of $10 \text{ mA}$ and a voltage range of $0.75 \text{ V}$. To convert this galvanometer into an ammeter of range $10 \text{ A}$, what is the shunt resistance?

  • A
    $\frac{100}{999} \Omega$
  • B
    $\frac{50}{999} \Omega$
  • C
    $\frac{200}{999} \Omega$
  • D
    $\frac{75}{999} \Omega$

The resistance of a galvanometer coil is $R$. What is the shunt resistance required to convert it into an ammeter of range $4$ times?

$A$ 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 ............... $A$.

$A$ galvanometer with its coil resistance $25\,\Omega$ requires a current of $1\,mA$ for its full-scale deflection. In order to construct an ammeter to read up to a current of $2\,A$,the approximate value of the shunt resistance should be:
