$A$ moving coil galvanometer,having a resistance $G$,produces full scale deflection when a current $I_g$ flows through it. This galvanometer can be converted into $(i)$ an ammeter of range $0$ to $I_0$ $(I_0 > I_g)$ by connecting a shunt resistance $R_A$ to it and $(ii)$ into a voltmeter of range $0$ to $V$ $(V = GI_0)$ by connecting a series resistance $R_V$ to it. Then,

What is the value of resistance to double the value of number of turns of coil for a galvanometer? Why?

Consider the two following statements $A$ and $B$,and identify the correct choice given in the answers: $(A)$ Duddell's thermo galvanometer is suitable to measure direct current only. $(B)$ Thermopile can measure temperature differences of the order of $10^{-3} {}^{\circ}C$.

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $50 \Omega$ is connected to a battery of $3 \text{ V}$ along with a resistance of $2950 \Omega$ in series,showing a full-scale deflection of $30$ divisions. The additional series resistance required to reduce the deflection to $20$ divisions is: (in $Omega$)
