$A$ millivoltmeter of $25 \, mV$ range is to be converted into an ammeter of $25 \, A$ range. The value (in $\Omega$) of the necessary shunt will be:

In a circuit,$5$ percent of the total current passes through a galvanometer. If the resistance of the galvanometer is $G$,then the value of the shunt is:

In the conversion of a moving coil galvanometer into an ammeter of a required range,what is the resistance of the ammeter so formed? [$S$ = shunt resistance and $G$ = resistance of the galvanometer]

An ammeter has a range of $1 \ A$ without a shunt. The range of the ammeter can be changed by using different shunt resistances. What is the nature of the graph between the shunt resistance and the range?

$A$ moving coil galvanometer,having a resistance $G$,produces full scale deflection when a current $I_g$ flows through it. This galvanometer can be converted into $(i)$ an ammeter of range $0$ to $I_0$ $(I_0 > I_g)$ by connecting a shunt resistance $R_A$ to it and $(ii)$ into a voltmeter of range $0$ to $V$ $(V = GI_0)$ by connecting a series resistance $R_V$ to it.
