JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 4. Moving charges and magnetism

A galvanometer having a resistance of \(20\,\Omega \) and \(30\, divisions\) on both sides has figure of merit \(0.005\, ampere /division\). The resistance that should be connected in series such that it can be used as a voltmeter upto \(15\, volt\) is ........... \(\Omega\)

  1. A \(100\)
  2. B \(120\)
  3. C \(80\)
  4. D \(125\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(80\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{R}_{9}=20 \,\Omega\) \(\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{L}}=\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{g}}=\mathrm{N}=30\) \(\mathrm{FOM}=\frac{1}{\phi}=0.005 \,\mathrm{A/Div}\) Current sentivity \(=\mathrm{CS}=\left(\frac{1}{0.005}\right)=\frac{\phi}{1}\) \(I{g_{\max }} = 0.005 \times 30\)…
