$A$ galvanometer has resistance $G \ \Omega$ and $I_g$ is the current flowing through it which produces full-scale deflection. $S_1$ is the value of the shunt which converts it into an ammeter of range $0$ to $3I$,and $S_2$ is the shunt value which converts it into an ammeter of range $0$ to $4I$. The ratio $S_2:S_1$ is:

$A$ moving coil galvanometer, when shunted with a $2\text{ }\Omega$ resistance, gives a full-scale deflection for a current of $500\text{ mA}$. When a resistance of $470\text{ }\Omega$ is connected in series, it gives a full-scale deflection for a potential of $10\text{ V}$ applied across it. The value of the resistance of the galvanometer coil is . . . . . . $\Omega$.

If the current is doubled,the deflection is also doubled in
