A galvanmeter has a coil of resistance \(200 \Omega\) with a full scale deflection at \(20 \mu \mathrm{A}\). The value of resistance to be added to use it as an ammeter of range \((0-20) \mathrm{mA}\) is _______.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(0.20 \Omega\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{G}=200 \Omega\)
\(\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{g}}=20 \mu \mathrm{A}\)
\(\mathrm{i}=\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{g}}\left(\frac{\mathrm{G}}{\mathrm{S}}+1\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow 20 \times 10^{-3}=20 \times 10^{-6}\left(\frac{200}{\mathrm{~S}}+1\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{200}{\mathrm{~S}}=999\)
\(\Rightarrow \mathrm{S} \approx 0.2 \Omega\)
