A sensitive galvanometer like a moving coil gavanometer can be converted into an ammeter or into a voltmeter by connecting a proper resistance to it . Then , which of the following statement is not true ?

A

An ammeter is connected in series in a circuit and the pontential difference across it is small

B

An ammeter is connected in series in a circuit and the current through it is negligible

C

A voltmeter is connected in parallel in a circuit and the current through it is negligible

D

A voltmeter is connected in parallel a circuit the potential difference across it is maximum .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`r=R((E )/(V)-1)`
`r=3( (91.08)/(0.6)-1)`
`therefore r = 2.4Omega`
