$A$ galvanometer has a resistance of $25 \, \Omega$ and a maximum of $0.01 \, A$ current can be passed through it. In order to change it into an ammeter of range $10 \, A$, the shunt resistance required is

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $200 \Omega$ is to be converted into an ammeter. The value of shunt resistance which allows $3 \%$ of the main current through the galvanometer is equal to (nearly) (in $Omega$)

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $100 \Omega$ requires $10 \mu A$ current for full-scale deflection. If a shunt resistance of $1 \Omega$ is connected in parallel to convert it into an ammeter, what is the minimum current required to obtain full-scale deflection (in $\text{ mA}$)?

Two moving coil meters $M_1$ and $M_2$ have the following particulars:
$R_1 = 10\,\Omega, N_1 = 30, A_1 = 3.6 \times 10^{-3}\, m^2, B_1 = 0.25\, T$
$R_2 = 14\,\Omega, N_2 = 42, A_2 = 1.8 \times 10^{-3}\, m^2, B_2 = 0.50\, T$
(The spring constants are identical for the two meters). Determine the ratio of voltage sensitivity of $M_2$ and $M_1$.
