Current Electricity Question 14
Question 14 - 2024 (29 Jan Shift 1)
The deflection in moving coil galvanometer falls from 25 divisions to 5 division when a shunt of $24 \Omega$ is applied. The resistance of galvanometer coil will be :
(1) $12 \Omega$
(2) $96 \Omega$
(3) $48 \Omega$
(4) $100 \Omega$
Show Answer
Answer: (2)
Solution:
Let $\mathrm{x}=$ current/division
After applying shunt
Now $5 \mathrm{x} \times \mathrm{G}=20 \mathrm{x} \times 24$
$G=4 \times 24$
$G=96 \Omega$
