Question Answer Detailed Solution
31: In an ammeter, 5% of the main current passes through the galvanometer. If the resistance of the galvanometer is G, the resistance of the ammeter will be:
(1) G/200
(2) G/199
(3) 199G
(4) 200G
BONUS Use the relation for the effective resistance of the ammeter. With 5% of the current through the galvanometer, calculate the shunt resistance to find the total resistance as G/199.
32: To measure the temperature coefficient of resistivity α of a semiconductor, an electrical arrangement is prepared. Arm BC is made of the semiconductor, with an initial resistance of 3 mΩ. If the galvanometer shows no deflection after 10 seconds as BC is cooled at 2°C/s, then α is:
(1) −2 × 10⁻² °C⁻¹
(2) −1.5 × 10⁻² °C⁻¹
(3) −1 × 10⁻² °C⁻¹
(4) −2.5 × 10⁻² °C⁻¹
(2) −1.5 × 10⁻² °C⁻¹ Using the Wheatstone bridge principle, calculate the temperature coefficient by equating the change in resistance due to cooling.

(3) (A), (B), (C), (E) only
(4) (B), (C), (D), (E) only
(3) (A), (B), (C), (E) only Analyze each statement: (A), (B), (C), and (E) are correct, while (D) is incorrect because nuclear forces are not completely central.
