When a galvanometer is shunted with a 4 ...

When a galvanometer is shunted with a `4 Omega` resistance, the deflection is reduced to one-fifth. If the galvanometer is further shunted with a `2 Omega` wire, determine current in galvanometer now if initially current in galvanometer is `I_(0)` (given main current remains same).

A

`I_(0)//13`

B

`I_(0)//5`

C

`I_(0)//8`
