Q.

A moving coil galvanometer of resistance 100Ω shows full scale deflection when a current of 100 micro ampere passes through it. If it is intended to show full scale deflection when a current of one milli-ampere passes through it, the value of shunt resistance, to be connected to the galvanometer is

To calculate the shunt resistance, we use the formula:

Rs=IGI-IGRG

Given that the resistance of the galvanometer is 100Ω and the full-scale deflection current is 100 micro ampere, we can calculate the shunt resistance as follows:

Rs=100×10-610-3-100×10-6×100

Rs=1009Ω

Hence the correct answer is 1009Ω.
