उत्तर
Resistance of the galvanometer coil, G = 12 Ω
Current for which there is full scale deflection, Ig = 3 mA = 3 × 10−3 A
Range of the voltmeter is 0, which needs to be converted to 18 V.
∴ V = 18 V
Let a resistor of resistance R be connected in series with the galvanometer to convert it into a voltmeter. This resistance is given as:
R = `"V"/"I"_"g" - "G"`
= `18/(3 xx 10^-3) - 12`
= 6000 − 12
= 5988 Ω
Hence, a resistor of resistance 5988 Ω is to be connected in series with the galvanometer.
