(A) : If a galvanometer is converted into an ammeter and a milliammeter then the shunt resistance of ammeter is lower than that of milliammeter. (R) : In Ammeter the current through shunt is less than that of galvonameter as compared to the case of milliammeter.

Assertion : Higher the range, greater is the resistance of ammeter. Reason : To increase the range of ammeter, additional shunt needs to be used across it.
