$A$ galvanometer coil has a resistance $90\, \Omega$ and full-scale deflection current $10\, mA$. $A$ $910\, \Omega$ resistance is connected in series with the galvanometer to make a voltmeter. If the least count of the voltmeter is $0.1\, V$,the number of divisions on its scale is:

  • A
    $90$
  • B
    $91$
  • C
    $100$
  • D
    none

When a resistance of $100 \Omega$ is connected in series with a galvanometer of resistance $G$,its range is $V$. To double its range,a resistance of $1000 \Omega$ is connected in series. The value of $G$ is (in $Omega$)

In a moving coil galvanometer,two moving coils $M_1$ and $M_2$ have the following particulars:
$R_1 = 5 \ \Omega, N_1 = 15, A_1 = 3.6 \times 10^{-3} \ m^2, B_1 = 0.25 \ T$
$R_2 = 7 \ \Omega, N_2 = 21, A_2 = 1.8 \times 10^{-3} \ m^2, B_2 = 0.50 \ T$
Assuming that the torsional constant of the springs is the same for both coils,what will be the ratio of the voltage sensitivity of $M_1$ and $M_2$?

$A$ galvanometer may be converted into an ammeter or a voltmeter. In which of the following cases will the resistance of the device so obtained be the largest?

In the circuit (Figure) the current is to be measured. What is the value of the current if the ammeter shown:
$(a)$ is a galvanometer with a resistance $R_{G}=60.00 \; \Omega$;
$(b)$ is a galvanometer described in $(a)$ but converted to an ammeter by a shunt resistance $r_{s}=0.02 \; \Omega$;
$(c)$ is an ideal ammeter with zero resistance?

The deflection in a moving coil galvanometer is reduced to half when it is shunted with a $40 \Omega$ coil. The resistance of the galvanometer is (in $Omega$)
