STANDARD Physics Galvanometer MCQ Question
The conversion of a moving coil galvanometer into a voltmeter is done by
introducing a resistance of large value in series
introducing a resistance of small value in parallel
introducing a resistance of large value in parallel
introducing a resistance of small value in series
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
To convert a galvanometer into a voltmeter, a large resistance is connected in series with the galvanometer. This allows the voltmeter to measure higher potential differences without drawing significant current.
