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

A galvanometer, whose resistance is \(50\,ohm,\) has \(25\) divisions in it. When a current of \(4\times 10^{-4}\,A\) passes through it, its needle (pointer) deflects by one division. To use this galvanometer as a voltmeter of range \(2.5\,V,\) it should be connected to a resistance of.......\(ohm\)

  1. A \(250\)
  2. B \(200\)
  3. C \(6200\)
  4. D \(6250\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(200\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\({{\text{V}}_{\text{o}}} = {{\text{i}}_{{{\text{g}}_0}}}\left( {{{\text{R}}_{\text{G}}} + {\text{R}}} \right)\) \({{\text{i}}_{{g_0}}} = 4 \times {10^{ - 4}} \times 25 = {10^{ - 2}}{\mkern 1mu} {\text{A}}\) \(\mathrm{V}_{0}=2.5\, \mathrm{V}\)…
