$A$ galvanometer of resistance $100 \Omega$ gives full scale deflection for a current of $1 \text{ mA}$. It is converted into an ammeter of range $0 - 10 \text{ A}$. The shunt required is: (in $\text{ }\Omega$)

$A$ galvanometer has resistance $G \ \Omega$ and $I_g$ is the current flowing through it which produces full-scale deflection. $S_1$ is the value of the shunt which converts it into an ammeter of range $0$ to $3I$,and $S_2$ is the shunt value which converts it into an ammeter of range $0$ to $4I$. The ratio $S_2:S_1$ is:

The resistance of an ammeter is $13\, \Omega$ and its scale is graduated for a current up to $100\, A$. After an additional shunt has been connected to this ammeter,it becomes possible to measure currents up to $750\, A$ by this meter. The value of the shunt resistance is:

$A$ galvanometer having a resistance $G$ and current $I_g$ flowing in it,produces full-scale deflection. If $S_1$ is the value of the shunt which converts it into an ammeter of range $0-I$ and $S_2$ is the value of the shunt for range $0-8I$,then the ratio $\frac{S_1}{S_2}$ will be:
