The resistance of an ammeter is $13\, \Omega$ and its scale is graduated for a current upto $100$ $amps$. After an additional shunt has been connected to this ammeter it becomes possible to measure currents upto $750$ $ampere$ by this meter. The value of shunt-resistance is 
In one model of the electron, the electron of mass $m_e$ is thought to be a uniformly charged shell of radius $R$ and total charge $e$, whose electrostatic energy $E$ is equivalent to its mass $m_e$ via Einstein's mass energy relation $E=m_e c^2$. In this model, $R$ is approximately $\left(m_e=9.1 \times 10^{-31} \,kg , c=3 \times 10^8 \,ms ^{-1}\right.$, $1 / 4 \pi \varepsilon_0=9 \times 10^9 \,Fm ^{-1}$, magnitude of the electron charge $=1.6 \times 10^{-19} \,C$ )

Assertion : A loosely round helix made of stiff wire is suspended vertically with the lower end just touching a dish of mercury. When a current is passed through the wire, the helical wire executes oscillatory motion with the lower end jumping out of and inside of mercury.
Reason : When electric current is passed through helix, a magnetic field is produced both inside and outside the helix.
