Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2021

For full scale deflection of total 50 divisions, 50 mV voltage is required in galvanometer. The resistance of galvanometer if its current sensitivity is 2 div/mA will be :

  1. A 1$\Omega$
  2. B 5$\Omega$
  3. C 4$\Omega$
  4. D 2$\Omega$ Correct answer

Solution

${I_{\max }} = {{50} \over 2} = 25$ mA<br><br>$R = {V \over I} = {{50mV} \over {25mA}} = 2\Omega$
