A voltmeter of \(250 \mathrm{mV}\) range having a resistance of \(10 \Omega\) is converted into an ammeter of \(250 \mathrm{~mA}\) range. The value of necessary shunt is (nearly)

  1. A \(2 \Omega\)
  2. B \(0.1 \Omega\)
  3. C \(1 \Omega\)
  4. D \(10 \Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(1 \Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A voltmeter of \(250 \mathrm{mV}\) range having resistance of \(10 \Omega\) \[ \begin{aligned} & \therefore & V_g & =G I_g \\ \Rightarrow & & 250 \times 10^{-3} & =10 \times I_g \\ \Rightarrow & & I_g & =25 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~A} \end{aligned} \] Shunt required to convert…
