Q13.A 72 Ω galvanometer is shunted by a resistance of 8 Ω. The percentage of the total current which passes through the galvanometer is (1) 0. 1% (2) 10% (3) 25% (4) 0. 25%

What This Question Tests

This question tests the application of current division in a parallel circuit formed by a galvanometer and a shunt resistance.

Concepts Tested

Parallel combination of resistorsCurrent divisionGalvanometer sensitivity

Formulas Used

I_g * R_g = I_s * R_s

I_total = I_g + I_s

Percentage = (I_g / I_total) * 100%
