A glavanometer of `50 Omega` resistance has 25 divisions. A current of `4xx10^(-4)` A gives a deflection of one division. To convert this galvanometer into a voltmeter having a range of `25 V`, it should be connected with a resistance of

A

`245Omega` in parallel

B

`2550Omega` in series

C

`2450Omega` in series

D

`2500Omega` in parallel.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
3


According to question 25=`I(R+R_(g))`
` =(4xx10^(-4)xx25)(R+50)`
`rArr R+50=2500rArrR=2450Omega`
