To send \(10 \%\) of main current through moving coil galvanometer of resistance \(99 \Omega\). Shunt required is ________.

  1. A \(9 \Omega\)
  2. B \(11 \Omega\)
  3. C 108
  4. D \(99 \Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(11 \Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

B
Shunt \(S=\frac{G I_G}{I-I_G}\)
\(\begin{array}{l} S =\frac{99 \times 0.1}{1-0.1}\left(\because I _{ G }=10 \% I \right) \\ S =\frac{9.9}{0.9} \\ S=11 \Omega\end{array}\)
