$A$ moving coil galvanometer has a resistance of $50\,\Omega$ and gives full-scale deflection for $10\,mA$. How could it be converted into an ammeter with a full-scale deflection for $1\,A$?

Two galvanometers $A$ and $B$ require currents of $4 \ mA$ and $7 \ mA$,respectively,to produce the same deflection of $20$ divisions. If $S_{A}$ and $S_{B}$ are their sensitivities,respectively,then:

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $25\,\Omega$ gives full-scale deflection for a current of $10\,mA$. It is to be converted into a voltmeter of range $100\,V$ by connecting a resistance $R$ in series with the galvanometer. The value of resistance $R$ in $\Omega$ is:

$A$ galvanometer has $30$ divisions and a current sensitivity of $20 \, \mu A$ per division. Its resistance is $25 \, \Omega$. How will you convert this galvanometer into a voltmeter of $1 \, V$ range? (Find the series resistance in $\Omega$)
