Question on: WAEC Physics - 2011
An ammeter with a full scale deflection of 10mA has an internal resistance 0.5\(\Omega\). calculate the resistance of the shunt required to adapt it to read up to 3A
A
0.0167\(\Omega\)
B
0.0130\(\Omega\)
C
0.0250\(\Omega\)
D
0.1000\(\Omega\)
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A
\(R_2 = \frac{I_1R_1}{I_2} = \frac{0.01 \times 5}{2.99}\)
= 0.0167
= 0.0167
