Question 568: Current Electricity

Question

A galvanometer of resistance $$20 ~\Omega$$ gives a deflection of 5 divisions when $$1 \mathrm{~mA}$$ current flows through it. The galvanometer scale has 50 divisions. To convert the galvanometer into a voltmeter of range 25 volt, we should connect a resistance of

Accepted Answer

$$\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{R}=\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}}-\mathrm{G} \
& 	ext { Here, } \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}=\frac{50}{5}=10 \mathrm{~mA} \
	herefore \quad \mathrm{R} & =\frac{25}{10 	imes 10^{-3}}-20 \
& =2480 \Omega 	ext { in series }
\end{aligned}$$

Answer

$$1240 ~\Omega$$ in series.

Answer

$$2480 ~\Omega$$ in series.

Answer
