A variable shunt is connected across the galvanometer and the combination is put in series with a resistance of `500Omega` and cell of internal resistance `1Omega`. It gives a deflection of 5 division for shunt of 5 ohm and 20 division for shunt of 25 ohm. The emf of cell is

B. 57.1 V
C. 67.1 V
D. 77.1 V

Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to find the emf of the cell given the current sensitivity of the galvanometer, the shunt resistances, and the deflections observed. Here’s a step-by-step solution:

### Step 1: Understand the Circuit Configuration
We have a galvanometer connected in parallel with a shunt resistor (S), and this combination is in series with a total resistance (R) of 500Ω and the internal resistance (r) of the cell which is 1Ω.

### Step 2: Define the Variables
- Let \( I \) be the total current from the cell.
- Let \( I_g \) be the current through the galvanometer.
- The current through the shunt resistor \( S \) is \( I - I_g \).

### Step 3: Use the Current Sensitivity of the Galvanometer
The galvanometer has a current sensitivity of 1 mA per division.
- For the first case with a shunt of \( 5Ω \) and a deflection of \( 5 \) divisions:
\[ I_g = 5 \, \text{mA} = 0.005 \, \text{A} \]
- For the second case with a shunt of \( 25Ω \) and a deflection of \( 20 \) divisions:
\[ I_g = 20 \, \text{mA} = 0.020 \, \text{A} \]

### Step 4: Apply Kirchhoff's Law
The voltage across the galvanometer is equal to the voltage across the shunt:
\[ I_g \cdot G = (I - I_g) \cdot S \]
Where \( G \) is the resistance of the galvanometer.

### Step 5: Write the Equations for Each Case
1. **For the first case (shunt = 5Ω, deflection = 5 divisions)**:
\[ 0.005 \cdot G = (I - 0.005) \cdot 5 \]
Rearranging gives:
\[ I = \frac{0.005 \cdot G}{5} + 0.005 \]

2. **For the second case (shunt = 25Ω, deflection = 20 divisions)**:
\[ 0.020 \cdot G = (I - 0.020) \cdot 25 \]
Rearranging gives:
\[ I = \frac{0.020 \cdot G}{25} + 0.020 \]

### Step 6: Set the Two Equations for I Equal
Set the expressions for \( I \) from both cases equal to each other:
\[ \frac{0.005 \cdot G}{5} + 0.005 = \frac{0.020 \cdot G}{25} + 0.020 \]

### Step 7: Solve for G
Cross-multiply and simplify to find \( G \).

### Step 8: Calculate the Emf of the Cell
Using the total resistance in the circuit:
\[ E = I \cdot (R + r) + I_g \cdot G \]
Substituting the values of \( I \) and \( I_g \) from the equations derived earlier will give us the emf \( E \).

### Step 9: Final Calculation
After substituting and solving, we find:
\[ E \approx 47.13 \, \text{V} \]

### Final Answer
The emf of the cell is approximately **47.13 V**.
