A moving coil galvanometer has 150 equal divisions. Its current sensitivity is 10-divisions per milliampere and voltage
sensitivity is 2 divisions per milli volt. In order that each division reads $$1\,volt,$$ the resistance in ohms needed to be connected in series with the coil will be -
KEY CONCEPT : Resistance of Galvanometer,
$$G = \frac{{{\text{Current sensitivity}}}}{{{\text{Voltage sensitivity}}}} \Rightarrow G = \frac{{10}}{2} = 5\Omega $$
Here $${i_g} =$$ Full scale deflection current $$= \frac{{150}}{{10}} = 15mA$$
$$V =$$ voltage to be measured $$= 150\,volts$$
(such that each division reads $$1\,volt$$ )
$$ \Rightarrow R = \frac{{150}}{{15 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}} - 5 = 9995\Omega $$

In an ammeter $$0.2\% $$ of main current passes through the galvanometer. If resistance battery of galvanometer is $$G,$$ the resistance of ammeter will be
From Ohms law, resistance $$R = \frac{{\Delta V}}{{\Delta I}}$$
Resistance is said to be negative if on increasing voltage or temperature, current decreases.
In $$V-I$$ graph, for portion $$CD$$ of graph, the current decreases with increasing voltage.
Thus, portion $$CD$$ corresponds to negative resistance. Alternative
We know that the slope of graph $$V-I$$ will give the resistance, since slope of $$CD$$ curve is negative.
So, it has negative resistance.

On interchanging the resistances, the balance point of a meter bridge shifts to the left by $$10\,cm.$$ The resistance of their series combination is $$1k\,\Omega $$. How much was the resistance on the left slot before interchanging the resistances?

A potentiometer consists of a wire of length $$4\,m$$ and resistance $$10\,\Omega .$$ It is connected to a cell of emf $$2\,V.$$ The potential gradient of the wire is
Total external resistance will be the total resistance of whole length of box. It should be connected between $$A$$ and $$D.$$

You are given several identical resistances each of value $$R = 10\,\Omega $$ and each capable of carrying a maximum current of $$1\,A.$$ It is required to make a suitable combination of these resistances of $$5\,\Omega $$ which can carry a current of $$4\,A.$$ The minimum number of resistances of the type $$R$$ that will be required for this job is
To carry a current of $$4\,A$$ we need four path, each carrying a current of $$1\,A.$$ Let $$r$$ be the resistance of each path. These resistances are connected in parallel. So, their equivalent resistance.
$$\eqalign{
& \frac{1}{{{r_p}}} = \frac{1}{r} + \frac{1}{r} + \frac{1}{r} + \frac{1}{r} \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\,{r_p} = \frac{r}{4}. \cr
& {\text{But,}}\,\,{r_p} = \frac{r}{4} = 5\,\,\left( {{\text{given}}} \right) \cr
& \therefore r = 20\,\Omega \cr} $$
For this purpose two resistances should be connected is series. There are four such combinations in parallel. Hence, the total number of resistances $$ = 4 \times 2 = 8.$$

The thermo emf of a thermocouple varies with the temperature $$\theta $$ of the hot junction as $$E = a\theta + b{\theta ^2}$$ in volts where the ratio $$\frac{a}{b}$$ is $${700^ \circ }C.$$ If the cold junction is kept at $${0^ \circ }C,$$ then the neutral temperature is
A
$${1400^ \circ }C$$
B
$${350^ \circ }C$$
C
$${700^ \circ }C$$
D
No neutral temperature is possible for this termocouple.
Answer :
No neutral temperature is possible for this termocouple.
Neutral temperature is the temperature of a hot junction at which $$E$$ is maximum.
$$ \Rightarrow \frac{{dE}}{{d\theta }} = 0\,{\text{or}}\,a + 2b\theta = 0 \Rightarrow \theta = \frac{{ - a}}{{2b}} = - 350$$
Neutral temperature can never be negative hence no $$\theta $$ is possible.
