The galvanometer deflection, when key \(K_1\) is closed but \(K_2\) is open, equals \(\theta_0\) (see figure). On closing \(K_2\) also and adjusting \(R_2\) to \(5\,\Omega \) , the deflection in galvanometer becomes \(\frac{{\theta _0}}{5}\). The resistance of the galvanometer is, then, given by [Neglect the internal resistance of battery]: .................. \(\Omega\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(22\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

When \(\mathrm{K}_{1}\) closed and \(\mathrm{K}_{2}\) is open

\(i=\frac{V}{220+R}\)        .....\((i)\)

When \(\mathrm{k}_{1}\) and \(\mathrm{k}_{2}\) are closed.

\(\mathrm{KVL} \rightarrow\)

\(\left(\frac{\mathrm{iR}}{25}+\frac{\mathrm{i}}{5}\right) 220+\frac{\mathrm{i}}{5} \mathrm{R}=\mathrm{V}\)

\(\left(\frac{\mathrm{i} \mathrm{R}}{25}+\frac{\mathrm{i}}{5}\right) 220+\frac{\mathrm{i}}{5} \mathrm{R}=\mathrm{i}(220+\mathrm{R}) \quad\) From eq \((i)\)

\(\Rightarrow \quad R=22 \,\Omega\)
