$A$ galvanometer with a resistance of $12 \,\Omega$ gives full-scale deflection when a current of $3 \, mA$ is passed. It is required to convert it into a voltmeter which can read up to $18 \, V$. The resistance to be connected is ............... $\Omega$.

An ammeter gives full scale deflection when a current of $1.0 \ A$ is passed through it. To convert it into a $10 \ A$ range ammeter,the ratio of its resistance $(G)$ to the shunt resistance $(S)$ will be:

$A$ moving coil galvanometer is converted into an ammeter, reading up to $0.04 \,A$ by connecting a shunt of resistance '$3r$' across it and then into an ammeter reading up to $0.8 \,A$, when a shunt of resistance '$r$' is connected across it. What is the maximum current which can be sent through this galvanometer if no shunt is used (in $\,A$)?
