To convert a galvanometer into a ammeter, one needs to connect a
  • low resistance in parallel
  • B
    high resistance in parallel
  • C
    low resistance in series
  • D
    high resistance in series

Answer

Correct option: A.
low resistance in parallel
a
To convert a galvanometer into an ammeter, one needs to connect a low resistance in parallel so that maximum current passes through the shunt wire and ammeter remains protected.
