  • question_answer
    The resistance of ammeter is 99ft. The current of ammeter is 10% of main current, then the resistance of shunt will be

    A)  11\[\Omega \]            

    B)  22\[\Omega \]

    C)  99\[\Omega \]          

    D)  33\[\Omega \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     The flowing current in ammeter is 10% of main current. Therefore resistance of shunt connected in parallel. \[{{I}_{1}}{{R}_{1}}={{I}_{2}}{{R}_{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{I}{10}\times 99=\frac{9I}{10}\times S\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[S=11\,\Omega \]
