CBSEENPH12039846

A millivoltmeter of 25 mV range is to be converted into an ammeter of 25 A range. The value (in ohm) of necessary shunt will be

  • 0.001

  • 0.01

  • 1

  • 0.05

Solution

A.

0.001

The full-scale deflection current
straight i subscript straight g equals space fraction numerator 25 space mV over denominator straight G end fraction space ampere
Where G is the resistance of the meter. The value of shunt required for converting it into ammeter of range 25 A is 
space straight S space equals space fraction numerator straight i subscript straight g straight G over denominator straight i minus straight i subscript straight g end fraction
so space that comma space straight S space equals space fraction numerator 25 space mV over denominator 25 end fraction space equals space 0.001 space straight capital omega
