The deflection in a moving coil galvanometer falls from 50 divisions to 10 divisions when a shunt of 12 ohm is applied. What is the resistance of the galvanometer?

Answer»

SOLUTION :In case of a GALVANOMETER, `Iproptheta`
So, `(I_(G))/I=10/50=1/5`, i.e., `I_(G)=1/5I`
Now as in case of a SHUNTED galvanometer as SHOWN in fig.
`(I-I_(G))S=I_(G)G`,
i.e., `(I-1/5I)xx12=1/5IG`
So, `G=4xx12=48Omega`
