ANSWER:
Solution 46PE
Find the resistance that must be placed in parallel with a 25.0-Ω galvanometer having a 50.0-μA sensitivity (the same as the one discussed in the text) to allow it to be used as an ammeter with a 10.0-A full-scale reading. Include a circuit diagram with your solution.
Calculate the parallel resistance from relation,
R= r
Here, R is the resultant parallel resistance, r is the internal resistance of galvanometer, IG is the current sensitivity of galvanometer and I is the current reading in ammeter.
