A galvanometer with a full scale sensitivity of 1 mA requires a `900 Omega` resistor to make a voltmeter reading full scale when 1 V is applied . What series resister is required to make the same galvanometer into 50 V full scale voltmeter ?

A

59000

B

49000

C

49900

D

4900

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`R_1=(V_1)/(I_g)-G therefore G=100Omega`
Now , `R_2=(V_2)/(I_g)-G=49,900Omega`.
