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
    $2\, \Omega$
  • B
    $0.2\, \Omega$
  • C
    $2\, k\Omega$
  • D
    $20\, \Omega$

$A$ moving coil galvanometer is converted into an ammeter, reading up to $0.04 \,A$ by connecting a shunt of resistance '$3r$' across it and then into an ammeter reading up to $0.8 \,A$, when a shunt of resistance '$r$' is connected across it. What is the maximum current which can be sent through this galvanometer if no shunt is used (in $\,A$)?
