Question

A galvanometer of resistance $$5\,ohms$$  gives a full scale deflection for a potential difference of $$10\,mV.$$  To convert the galvanometer into a voltmeter giving a full scale deflection for a potential difference of $$1\,V,$$  the size of the resistance that must be attached to the voltmeter is

A. $$0.495\,ohm$$
B. $$49.5\,ohm$$
C. $$495\,ohm$$  
D. $$4950\,ohm$$
Answer :   $$495\,ohm$$
Solution :
$$\eqalign{ & {I_g} = \frac{{10 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}}{5} = 2 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,A; \cr & R = \frac{V}{{{I_g}}} - {R_g} = \frac{1}{{2 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}} - 5 = 495\,\Omega . \cr} $$
