A voltmeter reading upto 10 V has a resistance of`1000 Omega`. It can be converted into an ammeter reading up ot 10 A by connecting a shunt of

A

`1Omega`

B

`0.1Omega`

C

`2Omega`

D

`0.2Omega`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`I_g =(V)/(R_v)=(10)/(1000)=(1)/(100)A`
here `R_v=G`
`therefore` Required shunt,
`S=((I_g)/(I-I_g)).G=1 Omega`
