List of top Physics Questions on Basic Galvanometer

The current through a galvanometer of resistance $50 \Omega$ is only $4\%$ of the main current when a shunt resistance is connected. The value of the shunt resistance is approximately

A moving coil galvanometer has 150 equal divisions. Its current sensitivity is 10 divisions per mA and Voltage sensitivity is 2 divisions per millivolt. In order to read each division 1 volt, the resistance in ohms to be connected in series is:

A moving coil galvanometer has a resistance of $50\,\Omega$ and gives a full-scale deflection for a current of $2 \text{ mA}$. To convert it into a voltmeter reading up to 10 V, the required series resistance to be connected is

In a moving coil galvanometer, the magnetic field is made radial so that the:

The shunt resistance to be connected across a galvanometer of resistance $50,\Omega$ to send $\dfrac{1}{1000}^{\text{th}}$ of the main circuit current through the galvanometer is nearly

A galvanometer is converted into a voltmeter by connecting ________.

To protect galvanometer from possible damages due to large current, which of the following should be connected to its coil:

A galvanometer has a coil of resistance \(100\,\Omega\) showing a full scale deflection at \(50\,\mu\text{A}\). The resistance that should be added to use it as an ammeter of range \(10\,\text{mA}\) is
