$A$ voltmeter having a resistance of $50 \times 10^3 \, \Omega$ is used to measure the voltage in a circuit. To increase the range of measurement $3$ times,the additional series resistance required is:

  • A
    $10^5 \, \Omega$
  • B
    $150 \, k\Omega$
  • C
    $900 \, k\Omega$
  • D
    $9 \times 10^6 \, \Omega$

$A$ galvanometer with $50$ divisions on the scale has a resistance of $25 \Omega$. $A$ current of $2 \times 10^{-4} \text{ A}$ gives a deflection of one scale division. The additional series resistance required to convert it into a voltmeter reading up to $25 \text{ V}$ is $.... \Omega$.

$A$ galvanometer having a coil resistance $100 \; \Omega$ gives a full-scale deflection when a current of $1 \; mA$ is passed through it. What is the value of the resistance in $k\Omega$ which can convert this galvanometer into a voltmeter giving full-scale deflection for a potential difference of $10 \; V$?
