When a shunt resistance of $4r$ is connected to a galvanometer,it becomes an ammeter that can measure $0.03 \, A$. When a shunt resistance of $r$ is connected to the same galvanometer,it becomes an ammeter that can measure $0.06 \, A$. What is the current capacity $(i_g)$ of the galvanometer in $A$?

  • A
    $0.01$
  • B
    $0.02$
  • C
    $0.03$
  • D
    $0.04$

$A$ galvanometer having a coil of resistance $30 \ \Omega$ needs $20 \ \text{mA}$ of current for full-scale deflection. If a maximum current of $3 \ \text{A}$ is to be measured using this galvanometer,the resistance of the shunt to be added to the galvanometer should be $\frac{30}{X} \ \Omega$,where $X$ is

An ammeter reads up to $1\, A$. Its internal resistance is $0.81\, \Omega$. To increase the range to $10\, A$,the value of the required shunt is ............ $\Omega$.

The sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer is inversely proportional to

$A$ student uses the resistance of a known resistor $(1 \,\Omega)$ to calibrate a voltmeter and an ammeter using the circuits shown below. The student measures the ratio of the voltage to current to be $1 \times 10^3 \,\Omega$ in circuit $(a)$ and $0.999 \,\Omega$ in circuit $(b)$. From these measurements,the resistance (in $\Omega$) of the voltmeter and ammeter are found to be close to

The sensitivity of a galvanometer that measures current is decreased by $\frac{1}{40}$ times by using a shunt resistance of $10 \Omega$. Then,the value of the resistance of the galvanometer is (in $\Omega$)
