When a galvanometer is shunted by a resistance $s$,its current capacity increases $n$ times. If the same galvanometer is shunted by another resistance $s_1$,its capacity will increase to $n_1$ times the original current. The value of $n_1$ 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 ............ $\Omega$.

An ammeter with a resistance of $2 \,\Omega$ can measure up to $100 \,mA$. What resistance (in $\Omega$) must be connected in series to make it measure up to $5 \,V$?

By connecting a resistance of $980 \Omega$ in series with a galvanometer, it is converted into a voltmeter of a certain range. When the resistance of $470 \Omega$ is connected in series, the range is halved. The resistance of the galvanometer is (in $\Omega$)
