Important Questions on Magnetic Fields due to Electric Current



Higher the range, greater is the resistance of ammeter.
To increase the range of ammeter, additional shunt needs to be used across it.



The deflection in galvanometer falls to $\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{\operatorname{th}}$ when it is shunted by . If additional shunt of is connected to earlier shunt, the deflection in galvanometer falls to






How do you convert a moving coil galvanometer into an ammeter?


Distinguish between ammeter and voltmeter.




A galvanometer has a 50 division scale. Battery has no internal resistance. It is found that there is deflection of 40 divisions when Deflection becomes 20 divisions when resistance taken from resistance box is 4900 Ω. Then we can conclude :
