If a shunt of 200 Ω resistance is used with a galvanometer of 1000 Ω resistance, the multiplying power is
6
5
1/5
1/6
Answer: Option
Explanation:

If current through galvanometer is 1,

A current through shunt = . Total current = 6 I. Hence multiplying factor is 6.

The solution you have shown is not clear. Please explain.

Multiplying factor = I/Ic,

= (1 + Rc/Rs),

= (1 + 1000/200) = 6.

Multiply factor=(Rm÷Rsh)+1.

Multiplying power = {1+ (Rm÷Rsh) }.
Rm= galvanometer Internal Resistance,
Rsh= shunt resistance.

m = Shunt resistance + Galvanometer resistance/shunt resistance.
m =200 + 1000/200.
= 1200/200 = 6.
