Current Electricity and Electrical InstrumentHard

Question

A millimeter of range 10mA and resistance  is joined in a circuit as shown. The meter gives full-scale deflection for current I when A and B are used as its terminals, i.e., current  enters at A and leaves at B (C is left isolated). The value of I is

Options

A.100 mA
B.900 mA
C.1A
D.1.1 A

Solution


Between A and B
(9 + 0.9) × 10 × 10-3 = (I - 10mA)  0.1
⇒ 990 mA = I - 10mA ⇒ I = 1000mA = 1A
