Question

A galvanometer of resistance 25 `Omega` is shunted by 2.5 `Omega` resistance. The part (fraction) of the total current that flows through the galvanometer is given as ______.

Options

  • `"I"_"G"/"I"_"0"= 1/11`

  • `"I"_"G"/"I"_"0"= 2/11`

  • `"I"_"G"/"I"_"0"= 3/11`

  • `"I"_"G"/"I"_"0"= 4/11`

Solution

A galvanometer of resistance 25 `Omega` is shunted by 2.5 `Omega` resistance. The part (fraction) of the total current that flows through the galvanometer is given as `"I"_" G"/"I"_"0" = 1/11`.

Explanation:

`"I"_" G"/"I" = "S"/"S" + "G"`

`2.5/(2.5 + 2.5`

`"I"_" G"/"I" =  2.5/27.5 = 25/275 = 1/11`
