The sensitiveness of a moving coil galvanometer can be increased by decreasing:

In a circuit for finding the resistance of a galvanometer by the half-deflection method,a $6\,V$ battery and a high resistance of $11\,k\Omega$ are used. The figure of merit of the galvanometer is $60\,\mu A/\text{division}$. In the absence of shunt resistance,the galvanometer produces a deflection of $\theta = 9$ divisions when current flows in the circuit. The value of the shunt resistance that can cause the deflection of $\theta/2$ is closest to .................. $\Omega$.

The deflection in a moving coil galvanometer is

Explain the use of a galvanometer as a voltmeter.

$A$ millivoltmeter of $25 \, mV$ range is to be converted into an ammeter of $25 \, A$ range. The value (in $\Omega$) of the necessary shunt will be:

$A$ galvanometer coil has a resistance $80 \Omega$ and current for full-scale deflection is $10 \text{ mA}$. $A$ resistance of $920 \Omega$ is connected in series with the galvanometer to make a voltmeter. If the least count of the voltmeter is $0.2 \text{ V}$,the number of divisions on the scale is:
