PHY 102 Test Compilation PHY 102 25 Objective Question

A galvanometer of 50 ohms gives full scale deflection with 2 mA current. To convert it into an ammeter of range 10 A, the shunt resistance should be:

A 0.1 ohms

B 0.2 ohms

C 0.01 ohms

Correct Answer

D 0.02 ohms

Option C is the correct answer.

Rs = IgRg/(I-Ig) = (0.002)(50)/9.998 = 0.01 ohms.

Rs = IgRg/(I-Ig) = (0.002)(50)/9.998 = 0.01 ohms.
