Question

A moving coil galvanometer has a resistance of $$900\,\Omega .$$  In order to send only $$10\% $$  of the main current through this galvanometer, the resistance of the required shunt is

A. $$0.9\,\Omega $$
B. $$100\,\Omega $$  
C. $$405\,\Omega $$
D. $$90\,\Omega $$
Answer :   $$100\,\Omega $$
Solution :
$$\eqalign{ & {I_g} = 0.1\,I,{I_s} = 0.9I;S = \frac{{{I_g}{R_g}}}{{{I_s}}} \cr & = \frac{{0.1 \times 900}}{{0.9}} = 100\,\Omega \cr} $$
