Current Electricity and Electrical InstrumentHard
Question
Statement-I : Higher the range, greater is the resistance of ammeter.
Statement-II : To increase the range of ammeter, additional shunt needs to be used across it.
Statement-II : To increase the range of ammeter, additional shunt needs to be used across it.
Options
A.Statement-I is true, Statement-II is true, Statement-II is the correct explanation of Statement-I
B.Statement-I is true, Statement-II is true, Statement-II is not the correct explanation of Statement-I.
C.Statement-I is true, Statement-II is false.
D.Statement-I is false, Statement-II is true.
Solution
To increase the range of ammeter resistance should be decreased (So additional shunt is connected in parallel)
