A galvanometer of resistance `30 Omega` is shunted by a `30 Omega` resistor. What part of the main current flows through the meter ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to determine what part of the main current flows through the galvanometer when it is shunted by a resistor of equal resistance. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values**: - Resistance of the galvanometer, \( R_g = 30 \, \Omega \) - Resistance of the shunt resistor, \( R_s = 30 \, \Omega \) ...
