Two identical moving coil galvanometers have $10 \Omega$ resistance and full scale deflection at $2 \mu A$ current. One of them is converted into a voltmeter of $100 \text{ mV}$ full scale reading and the other into an ammeter of $1 \text{ mA}$ full scale current using appropriate resistors. These are then used to measure the voltage and current in the Ohm's law experiment with $R = 1000 \Omega$ resistor by using an ideal cell. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is/are correct?
$(1)$ The measured value of $R$ will be $980.2 \Omega$.
$(2)$ The resistance of the voltmeter will be $50 \text{ k} \Omega$.
$(3)$ The resistance of the ammeter will be $0.02 \Omega$ (rounded off to the $2^{\text{nd}}$ decimal place).
$(4)$ If the ideal cell is replaced by a cell having internal resistance of $5 \Omega$,then the measured value of $R$ will be more than $1000 \Omega$.
