Question
Chapter 24, Problem 63A
To determine
To identify: The resistor in the given circuit.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 63A
The resistor in the given circuit is called “shunt resistor”.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
A galvanometer with a resistor connected in parallel to it.
Consider the circuit shown in Figure 1. The circuit consists of a galvanometer which can be used to measure small currents. The resistor connected in parallel with the galvanometer is called as “shunt resistor”.
Figure 1
This resistor has a value less than the resistance of the galvanometer. It is converted to an ammeter using circuit.
