$A$ galvanometer of resistance $G$ can be converted into a voltmeter of range $V$ by connecting a resistance $R$ in series with it. The series resistance required to change its range to $\frac{V}{3}$ is

  • A
    $\frac{R-3 G}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{R+G}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{R-G}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{R-2 G}{3}$

$A$ moving coil galvanometer has a coil with $175$ turns and an area of $1 \, cm^2$. It uses a torsion band with a torsion constant of $10^{-6} \, N \cdot m/rad$. The coil is placed in a magnetic field $B$ parallel to its plane. The coil deflects by $10^{\circ}$ for a current of $1 \, mA$. The value of $B$ (in Tesla) is approximately:

The deflection in a moving coil galvanometer is

Only $4 \%$ of the total current in the circuit passes through a galvanometer. If the resistance of the galvanometer is $G$,then the shunt resistance connected to the galvanometer is:

The voltmeter has a range of $10 \ V$ and its internal resistance is $50 \ \Omega$. To increase the range of the voltmeter to $15 \ V$,the resistance which is to be connected is:
