To solve the problem of converting a galvanometer into a voltmeter, we need to determine the resistance that should be connected in series with the galvanometer. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the Given Values We have the following information: - Resistance of the galvanometer (G) = 10 Ω - Full-scale deflection current (I_G) = 100 mA = 0.1 A - Maximum potential difference (V) we want to measure = 100 V ...
