The range of an ammeter of resistance $G$ can be increased from $I$ to $nI$ by connecting

  • A
    $A$ series resistance of $\frac{G}{n+1} \Omega$
  • B
    $A$ shunt of $\frac{G}{n-1} \Omega$
  • C
    $A$ shunt of $\frac{G}{n+1} \Omega$
  • D
    $A$ series resistance of $\frac{G}{n-1} \Omega$

$A$ galvanometer coil has a resistance of $10 \Omega$ and the meter shows full scale deflection for a current of $2 \text{ mA}$. What resistance needs to be connected to convert the meter into a voltmeter of range $0$ to $18 \text{ V}$ (in $Omega$)?

$A$ 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?

An ammeter with a resistance of $1\, \Omega$ can measure up to $10\, mA$. To convert it into a voltmeter that can measure up to $10\, V$,what resistance (in $\Omega$) must be connected in series?

$A$ shunt of resistance $1\ \Omega$ is connected across a galvanometer of $120\ \Omega$ resistance. $A$ current of $5.5\ A$ flows through the circuit,and the galvanometer shows full-scale deflection. What is the current that would cause full-scale deflection in the galvanometer in the absence of the shunt (in $A$)?
