Conversion of Galvanometer into Ammeter Voltmeter Numerical

Que-10. A galvanometer has a resistance of 100 Ω. A PD of 100 mV between its terminals gives a full-scale deflection. Calculate the shunt resistance required to convert the galvanometer into an ammeter reading up to 5 A.

Ans- Ammeter conversion formula for shunt

A galvanometer has a resistance of 100 Ω. A PD of 100 mV between its terminals gives a full-scale deflection. Calculate the shunt resistance required to convert the galvanometer into an ammeter reading up to 5 A.

Que-11. A galvanometer of resistance 99 Ω gives a full-scale deflection for a current of 50 mA. Find the value of the shunt required to convert it into an ammeter reading up to a maximum current of 5 A. What is the resistance of the ammeter?

Ans-

≈ 1 Ω

again shunt and galvanometer are in parallel in ammeter

∴ Net resistance of ammeter

=> 1 x 99 / 1 + 99 = 0.99 Ω

Que-12. The resistance of a galvanometer is 30 Ω and it has 100 divisions on the scale. A current of 0.2 mA produces a deflection of 1 division. What shunt will be required for measuring a current of 5 A?

Ans- Current for full scale deflection

The resistance of a galvanometer is 30 Ω and it has 100 divisions on the scale. A current of 0.2 mA produces a deflection of 1 division. What shunt will be required for measuring a current of 5 A?

Que-13. Α 80 Ω galvanometer shows a deflection of 1 division per mA. It has 50 divisions on its scale. If a shunt of 2.5 Ω be attached to the galvanometer, what maximum current will this galvanometer measure?

Ans-

Α 80 Ω galvanometer shows a deflection of 1 division per mA. It has 50 divisions on its scale. If a shunt of 2.5 Ω be attached to the galvanometer, what maximum current will this galvanometer measure?

Que-14. The coil of a galvanometer has a resistance of 100 Ω. It shows full-scale deflection for a current of 5 x 104 A. How will you convert it into a voltmeter to read a maximum PD of 5 V?

Ans- Resistance needed for conversion of galvanometer into voltmeter

=> R = V/iG – R

=> (5 / 5 x 10^-4) -100 = 9900 Ω

By adding 9900 Ω resistance in series.

Que-15. Α 50 Ω resistance galvanometer has 25 divisions on its scale. On sending a current of 4.0 × 10- 4 A in it, the pointer gives a deflection of 1 division. How much resistance should be connected in series with the galvanometer to convert it into a voltmeter of 2.5 V range?

Ans-

Α 50 Ω resistance galvanometer has 25 divisions on its scale. On sending a current of 4.0 × 10- 4 A in it, the pointer gives a deflection of 1 division

Que-16. The resistance of a voltmeter is 180 Ω. When there is 5 V potential difference across its ends, it gives full. scale deflection. What resistance should be connected in series to obtain a full-scale deflection at 25 V?

Ans-

The resistance of a voltmeter is 180 Ω. When there is 5 V potential difference across its ends, it gives full. scale deflection. What resistance should be connected in series to obtain a full-scale deflection at 25 V?

= 720 Ω

Que-17. A galvanometer coil has a resistance of 15 2 and it shows full-scale deflection for a current of 2.0 mA. How will you convert it into (a) an ammeter of range 0 to 5.0 A, (b) a voltmeter of range 0 to 15.0 V? Also determine the net resistances of the ammeter and the voltmeter.

A galvanometer coil has a resistance of 15 2 and it shows full-scale deflection for a current of 2.0 mA. How will you convert it into (a) an ammeter of range 0 to 5.0 A, (b) a voltmeter of range 0 to 15.0 V

(b) by connecting a 7485 Ω resistor in series; Resistance of ammeter = 0.00599 Ω, Resistance of voltmeter = 7500 Ω.

A galvanometer coil has a resistance of 15 2 and it shows full-scale deflection for a current of 2.0 mA. How will you convert it into (a) an ammeter of range 0 to 5.0 A, (b) a voltmeter of range 0 to 15.0 V

Que-18. The given circuit is used to measure the resistance R. The ammeter reads 2 A and the voltmeter 120 V What is the value of R if the resistance of the voltmeter is 3000 Ω? If the resistance of the voltmeter is taken to be infinitely large, then.

The given circuit is used to measure the resistance R

Ans- Net resistance of circuit

=> 3000 x R / 3000 + R

The given circuit is used to measure the resistance R. The ammeter reads 2 A and the voltmeter 120 V What is the value of R if the resistance of the voltmeter is 3000 Ω? If the resistance of the voltmeter is taken to be infinitely large, then.

again if resistance of voltmeter is in finite then no current will pass through voltmeter

then R = V/i

=> 120/2 = 60Ω
