    A galvanometer with a scale divided into 100 equal divisions has a current sensitivity of 10 divisions per milliampere and a voltage sensitivity of 2 divisions per millivolt. The galvanometer resistance will be

    A) 4 \[\Omega \]                   

    B) 5\[\Omega \]

    C) 3 \[\Omega \]                   

    D) 7\[\Omega \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Here, the current sensitivity is 10 div/mA and there are 100 division on the scale. So, the current required for full scale deflection is               \[{{H}_{2}}\left( g \right)={{p}_{2}}-3{{p}_{1}}\]                =  0 . 0 1 A Also the voltage sensitivity is 2 div/mV  so the voltage required for full scale deflection is                  \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{12}}\left( g \right)={{p}_{1}}\]                  =  0. 05 V Galvanometer resistance is given by                  \[={{p}_{2}}-3{{p}_{1}}+{{p}_{1}}=30mm\]                    \[{{p}_{2}}-2{{p}_{1}}=30mm\]
