A galvanometer having a coil of resistance 12 Ω gives full scale deflection for a current of 4 mA. How can it be converted into a voltmeter of range 0 to 24V?

Answer»

Given 

G = 12 Ω, 

Ig = 4 x 10-3A. 

V = 24V

We have,

R = \(\frac{V}{I_R}\) - G

R = \(\frac{24}{4\times 10^{-3}}\) - 12

R = 5988Ω

A resistance of 5988 Ω must be connected in series with galvanometer.
