In a circuit for finding the resistance of a galvanometer by half deflection method, a 6 V battery and a high resistance of 11 kOmega are used. The figure of merit of the galvanometer is 60 muA//"division" . In the absence of shunt resistance, the galvanometer produces a deflection of theta =9 divisions when current flows in the circuit. The value of the shunt resistance that can cause the deflection of theta//2 , is closet to :

In an experiment to determine the resistance of a galvanometer by half deflection method, the circuit shown is used. In one set of readings , if R = 10 Omega S = 4 Omega , then the resistance of the galvanometer is

If a galvanometer is connected in series with a high resistance so that potential drop across the galvanometer is 1/n th of the total applied voltage, then show that the combined resistance of the galvanometer and the series resistor is n times the resistance of the galvanometer i.e.,

When a moving coil galvanometer is shunted with a resistance of 10 Omega ,the deflection in the galvanometer reduces from 30 divisions to 6 divisions. The resistance of the galvanometer is
