Q150 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2018 (24 Apr Shift 2) · Physics

The sensitivity of a galvanometer is $60 \mathrm{div} / \mathrm{A}$. When a shunt is used, its sensitivity becomes $10 \mathrm{div} / \mathrm{A}$. If the resistance of the galvanometer is $20 \Omega$, then the value of shunt used is

  • Correct answer
    A
    $4 \Omega$
  • B
    $5 \Omega$
  • C
    $20 \Omega$
  • D
    $2 \Omega$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
