Moving Charges and Magnetism

  1. A galvanometer of 50 ohm resistance has 25 divisions. A current of 4 × 10–4 ampere gives a deflection of one per division. To convert this galvanometer into a voltmeter having a range of 25 volts, it should be connected with a resistance of
    1. 2450 Ω in series ​
    2. 2500 Ω in series. ​
    3. ​245 Ω in series. ​
    4. 2550 Ω in series.
Correct Option: A

Rg = 50Ω, Ig = 25 × 4 × 10–AΩ = 10–2 A​​Range of V = 25 volts ​
V = Ig(Re + Rg) ​

∴ Re =
V
- Rg = 2450 Ω
Ig
