$A$ shunt of resistance $1\,\Omega$ is connected across a galvanometer of $120\,\Omega$ resistance. $A$ total current of $5.5\,A$ is passed through the combination,which gives full-scale deflection in the galvanometer. The current that would give full-scale deflection in the absence of the shunt is nearly ............... $A$.

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $100 \Omega$ when connected in series with $400 \Omega$ measures a voltage of up to $10 \ V$. The value of resistance required to convert the galvanometer into an ammeter to read up to $10 \ A$ is $x \times 10^{-2} \Omega$. The value of $x$ is:

An ammeter gives full-scale deflection when a current of $2 \, A$ flows through it. The resistance of the ammeter is $12 \, \Omega$. If the same ammeter is to be used for measuring a maximum current of $5 \, A$,then the ammeter must be connected with a resistance of:
