A moving coil of galvanometer when shunted with \(2\,\Omega\) resistance gives a full scale deflection for a current of \(500\) mA. When a resistance of \(470\,\Omega\) is connected in series it gives a full scale deflection for \(10\) V potential applied on it. The value of resistance of galvanometer coil is __________ \(\Omega\).

  1. A 25
  2. B 50
  3. C 75
  4. D 100
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 50

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(G\) be the resistance of the galvanometer and \(I_g\) be the current required for full scale deflection. When the galvanometer is shunted with \(S = 2\,\Omega\), it acts as an ammeter of range \(I = 500\text{ mA} = 0.5\text{ A}\). The potential difference across the…
