A galvanometer of resistance 200 Ω gives full scale deflection with 15 milli-ampere current. In order to convert it into a 15 V range voltmeter, the value of resistance connected in series is

a
800 Ω
b
1000 Ω
c
1500 Ω
d
2500 Ω

detailed solution

Correct option is A

We know thatR=Vig−G=1515×10−3−200∴ R=800Ω
