In an ammeter,$0.25 \%$ of the main current passes through the galvanometer. If the resistance of the galvanometer is $G$,the resistance of the ammeter will be:

$A$ $50\,\Omega$ resistance is connected to a battery of $5\,V$. $A$ galvanometer of resistance $100\,\Omega$ is to be used as an ammeter to measure current through the resistance. For this,a resistance $r_s$ is connected to the galvanometer. Which of the following connections should be employed if the measured current is within $1\%$ of the current without the ammeter in the circuit?

When a current of $5 \ mA$ is passed through a galvanometer having a coil of resistance $15 \ \Omega$,it shows full scale deflection. The value of the resistance to be put in series with the galvanometer to convert it into a voltmeter of range $0 - 10 \ V$ is
