If only \(5 \%\) of the total current is to be passed through galvanometer of resistance G, then the resistance of the shunt will be

  1. A \(\frac{\mathrm{G}}{15}\)
  2. B \(\frac{\mathrm{G}}{17}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\mathrm{G}}{19}\)
  4. D \(\frac{\mathrm{G}}{21}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{\mathrm{G}}{19}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I_g = 0.05 I\) \(I_s = I - I_g = I - 0.05 I = 0.95 I\)
