shunt-resistance

A ($$0-50$$ $$A$$) moving coil ammeter has a voltage drop of $$0.1$$ $$V$$ across its terminals at full scale deflection. The external shunt resistance (in $$milliohms$$) needed to...

Two ammeters $$X$$ and $$Y$$ have resistances of $$1.2$$ $$\Omega $$ and $$1.5$$ $$\Omega $$ respectively and they give full-scale deflection with $$150$$ $$mA$$ and $$250$$ $$mA$$...

An ammeter has a current range of $$0$$-$$5A,$$ and its internal resistance is $$0.2\Omega $$. In order to change the range to $$0$$-$$25$$ $$A$$ we need to add a resistance of

A DC ammeter has a resistance of $$0.1$$$$\Omega $$ and its current range is $$0$$ – $$100A.$$ If the range is to be extended to $$0$$ –$$500A,$$ the meter requires the following s...

A galvanometer with a full scale current of $$10$$ $$mA$$ has a resistance of $$1000$$$$\Omega $$. The multiplying power (the ratio of measured current to galvanometer current) of...

A $$100$$ $$\mu A$$ ammeter has an internal resistance of $$100\,\Omega $$. For extending its range to measure $$500$$ $$\mu A$$, the shunt required is of resistance (in $$\Omega $...

A moving coil galvanometer is made into a d.c. ammeter by connecting
