A galvanometer of resistance 5 ohms gives a full scale deflection for a potential difference of . To convert the galvanometer into a voltmeter giving a full scale deflection for a potential difference of , the size of the resistance that must be attached to the voltmeter is
Get Answer
;
If represents the actual number of deflections in a converted galvanometer of resistance and shunt resistance . Then the total current when its figure of merit is will be :
By current division rule
Now, figure of merit
as, actual number of deflection
So, represent current
[(ii) corresponding to one scale division]
So,
[From (i) & (ii)]
