In the diagram shown,the reading of the voltmeter is $20\, V$ and that of the ammeter is $4\, A$. The value of $R$ should be (Consider the given ammeter and voltmeter are not ideal).

$A$ student is provided with a variable voltage source $V$,a test resistor $R_T=10\,\Omega$,two identical galvanometers $G_1$ and $G_2$,and two additional resistors,$R_1=10\,M\,\Omega$ and $R_2=0.001\,\Omega$. For conducting an experiment to verify Ohm's law,the most suitable circuit is:

Assertion: To convert a galvanometer into an ammeter,a small resistance is connected in parallel with it.
Reason: The small resistance increases the combined resistance of the combination.

$A$ galvanometer has a coil of resistance $200 \Omega$ with a full scale deflection at $20 \mu A$. The value of resistance to be added to use it as an ammeter of range $(0-20) mA$ is: (in $\Omega$)
