  • If By mistake Battey is connected between B and C Galvanometer is connected across A and C then .

    A
    We cannot get balanced point
    B
    Experiment will be less accurate
    C
    Experiment can e done in similar manner
    D
    Experiment can be done in similar manner but now `K_(2)` should be pressed first then `K_(1)` .

  • When a galvanometer is shunted with a 4 Omega resistance, the deflection is reduced to one-fifth. If the galvanometer is further shunted with a 2 Omega wire, determine current in galvanometer now if initially current in galvanometer is I_(0) (given main current remains same).

    A
    `I_(0)//13`
    B
    `I_(0)//5`
    C
