The scale of a galvanometer is divided into 150 equal divisions. The galvanomter has a current sensitivity of 15 div per ma and voltage senstivity of 3 div per milliovolt. What is the resisance of the galvanometer?

A

`10 Omega`

B

`15 Omega`

C

`5 Omega`

D

`2.5 Omega`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Current for full scale deflection`=10mA=I_g` Voltage for full scale deflection`=50 mV=V_g therefore G=(v_g)/(I_g)=(50 xx 10^(-3))/(10 xx 10^(-3))=5 Omega`.
