Class 12PhysicsMoving Charges and MagnetismThe Moving Coil Galvanometer (Sensitivity) and Ammeter and Voltmeter Conversion
MediumWhen a current of $5 \ mA$ is passed through a galvanometer having a coil of resistance $15 \ \Omega$,it shows full scale deflection. The value of the resistance to be put in series with the galvanometer to convert it into a voltmeter of range $0 - 10 \ V$ is
- A$1.985 \times 10^3 \ \Omega$
- B$2.045 \times 10^3 \ \Omega$
- C$2.535 \times 10^3 \ \Omega$
- D$4.005 \times 10^3 \ \Omega$

An ammeter of resistance $20 \Omega$ gives full scale deflection when $1 \text{ mA}$ current flows through it. What is the maximum current that can be measured by connecting $4$ resistors each of $16 \Omega$ in parallel with the meter (in $\text{ mA}$)?
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 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 $\Omega$)

View Solution$A$ shunt of resistance $1\ \Omega$ is connected across a galvanometer of $120\ \Omega$ resistance. $A$ current of $5.5\ A$ flows through the circuit,and the galvanometer shows full-scale deflection. What is the current that would cause full-scale deflection in the galvanometer in the absence of the shunt (in $A$)?
