A voltmeter of resistance 1000 Ω gives full-scale deflection when a current of 100 mA flow through it. The shunt resistance required across it to enable it to be used as an ammeter reading 1 A at full-scale deflection is :

(1) 10000 Ω

(2) 9000 Ω

(3) 222 Ω

(4) 111 Ω

A galvanometer of \(50~\Omega \) resistance has 25 divisions. A current of 4 × 10^–4 A gives a deflection of one division. To convert this galvanometer into a voltmeter having a range of 25 V, it should be connected with a resistance of:

1. 2500 Ω as a shunt

2. 2450 Ω as a shunt

3. 2550 Ω in series

4. 2450 Ω in series

A moving coil galvanometer of resistance 100Ω is used as an ammeter using a resistance 0.1Ω. The maximum deflection current in the galvanometer is 100 mA. Find the minimum current in the circuit so that the ammeter shows maximum deflection :

(1) 100.1 A

(2) 1000.1 mA

(3) 10.01 mA

(4) 1.01 mA

A moving coil galvanometer has 150 equal divisions. Its current sensitivity is 10 divisions per milliampere and voltage sensitivity is 2 divisions per millivolt. In order that each division reads 1 volt, the resistance in ohms needed to be connected in series with the coil will be 

(1) 99995

(2) 9995

(3) 10³

(4) 10⁵

In a moving coil galvanometer, the deflection of the coil $\theta$ is related to the electrical current i by the relation

(1) $i\propto \tan \theta$                 

(2) $i\propto \theta$ 

(3) $i\propto {\theta }^2$                    

(4) $i\propto \sqrt{\theta }$
