The resistance of a galvanometer is $50\, \Omega$ and the maximum current which can be passed through it is $0.002\, A$. What resistance must be connected to it in order to convert it into an ammeter of range $0 - 0.5\, A$?

Two similar galvanometers are converted into an ammeter and a milliammeter. The shunt resistance of the ammeter as compared to the shunt resistance of the milliammeter will be

The number of turns in a coil of a galvanometer is tripled. Then:

The number of turns of the coil of a moving coil galvanometer is increased in order to increase current sensitivity by $50 \%$. The percentage change in voltage sensitivity of the galvanometer will be $..........\%$

Two moving coil galvanometers $A$ and $B$ having identical springs are placed in magnetic fields of $0.25 \ T$ and $0.5 \ T$ respectively. If the number of turns in $A$ and $B$ are respectively $36$ and $48$,and the areas of the coils $A$ and $B$ are $2.4 \times 10^{-3} \ m^2$ and $4.8 \times 10^{-3} \ m^2$ respectively,then the ratio of the current sensitivities of the galvanometers $A$ and $B$ is
