$A$ 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 $1\,A$?

Why does a galvanometer not show full-scale deflection after connecting it in a circuit?

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $G$ has a voltage range $V_g$. The resistance required to convert it to read voltage up to $V$ is

“By increasing current sensitivity,voltage sensitivity is also increased”. This statement is true or false.

Consider a moving coil galvanometer $(MCG)$ :
$A :$ The torsional constant in a moving coil galvanometer has dimensions $[ML^2 T^{-2}]$.
$B :$ Increasing the current sensitivity may not necessarily increase the voltage sensitivity.
$C :$ If we increase the number of turns $(N)$ to its double $(2N)$,then the voltage sensitivity doubles.
$D :$ $MCG$ can be converted into an ammeter by introducing a shunt resistance of a large value in parallel with the galvanometer.
$E :$ Current sensitivity of $MCG$ depends inversely on the number of turns of the coil.
