Current Electricity Charging Discharging Of Capacitors Question 241

Question: A galvanometer has resistance of $ 7,\Omega $ and gives a full scale deflection for a current of 1.0 A. How will you convert it into a voltmeter of range 10 V

[MP PMT 1999]

Options:

A) $ 3,\Omega $ in series

B) $ 3,\Omega $ in parallel

C) $ 17,\Omega $ in series

D) $ 30,\Omega $ in series

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

By connecting a series resistance $ R=\frac{V}{i _{g}}-G=\frac{10}{1}-7=3,\Omega $
