The deflection in a galvanometer falls to $\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{th}$ of its initial value when it is shunted by a resistor of $3 \Omega$. If an additional shunt of $2 \Omega$ is connected in parallel to the earlier shunt,the deflection in the galvanometer falls to:

Which of the following statements is wrong?

$A$ galvanometer has $30$ divisions and a sensitivity of $16\,\mu A/\text{div}$. It can be converted into a voltmeter to read $3\,V$ by connecting:

$A$ moving coil galvanometer is converted into an ammeter of range $0$ to $5 \, mA$. The galvanometer resistance is $90 \, \Omega$ and the shunt resistance has a value of $10 \, \Omega$. If there are $50$ divisions in the galvanometer-turned-ammeter on either side of zero, its current sensitivity is

If an ammeter is to be used in place of a voltmeter,then we must connect with the ammeter a
