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

In an ammeter, \(5 \%\) of the main current passes through the galvanometer. If resistance of the galvanometer is G, the resistance of ammeter will be _______.

  1. A \(\frac{G}{20}\)
  2. B \(\frac{G}{199}\)
  3. C \(199 \mathrm{G}\)
  4. D \(200 \mathrm{G}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{G}{20}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{S}} \mathrm{S}=\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}} \mathrm{G}\) \(\frac{95}{100} \mathrm{IS}=\frac{5 \mathrm{I}}{100} \mathrm{G}\) \(\mathrm{S}=\frac{\mathrm{G}}{19}\)…
