Moving Charges and Magnetism · Current loop and galvanometer
A moving coil of a galvanometer when shunted with resistance gives a full scale deflection for a current of 500 mA. When a resistance of is connected in series it gives a full scale deflection for 10 V potential applied on it. The value of resistance of galvanometer coil is .
