Explain: "Increasing the current sensitivity may not necessarily increase the voltage sensitivity".

$A$ galvanometer with its coil resistance $25\,\Omega$ requires a current of $1\,mA$ for its full-scale deflection. In order to construct an ammeter to read up to a current of $2\,A$,the approximate value of the shunt resistance should be:

$A$ teacher in his physics laboratory allotted an experiment to determine the resistance $(G)$ of a galvanometer. Students took the observations for $\frac{1}{3}$ deflection in the galvanometer. Which of the following is true for measuring the value of $G$?

The dimensional formula of current sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer is

In an experiment to find the resistance of a galvanometer by the half-deflection method, a $5 V$ battery and a high resistance of $4.9 k\Omega$ are connected in the circuit. In the absence of any shunt resistance, the galvanometer reads $20$ divisions when current flows in the circuit. To reduce the deflection by half, the value of the shunt resistance used is $98 \Omega$. The figure of merit of the galvanometer is given as $..... \mu A / \text{division}$.
