A moving coil galvanometer has 150 equal divisions. Its current sensitivity is 2 divisions per millivolt. In ordre that each division reads 1 volt, the resistance in ohms needed to be connected in series with the coil will beA. 99995B. 9995C. `10^(3)`D. `10^(5)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
(b) Voltage sensitivity `= ("Current sensitvity")/("Resistance of galvanometer G")`
`implies G = (10)/(2) = 5 Omega`
Here `i_(g) =` Full scale deflection current `= (150)/(10) = 15 mA`.
`V = ` Voltage to be measured ` = 150 xx 1 = 150 V`
Hence `R = (V)/(i_(g)) - G = (150)/(15 xx 10^(-3)) - 5 = 9995 Omega`
