A galvanometer having a resistance of \(7 \Omega\) is shunted by a resistance of \(3 \Omega\). If the total current is 1 A, the value of current passing through the shunt is

  1. A \(1.0 A\)
  2. B \(0.7 A\)
  3. C \(0.5 A\)
  4. D \(0.3A\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(0.7 A\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I_s = I \frac{R_g}{R_g + R_s}\) \(I_s = 1 A \times \frac{7 \Omega}{7 \Omega + 3 \Omega}\) \(I_s = 0.7 A\)
