Tangent Galvanometer
Question

The seave of a galvanometer of resistance 100 Ω contains 25 divisions. It gives a deflection of 1 division on passing a current of 4 x 10-4 A. The resistance in ohm to be added to it, so that it may become a voltmeter of range 2 .5 V is

Moderate
Solution

For full scale deflection ,  ig = n k
 ig=25×4×104=102A
Now R=VigG=25102100
=250100=150Ω
