An ammeter of resistance 5Ω has a full-scale deflection when a current of 50 mA flows in it. The value of the resistor required to adapt it to measure a current of 5 A is?

A. 0.25Ω
B. 5.00Ω
C. 19.80Ω
D. 0.05Ω

Correct Answer:

Option D = 0.05Ω

Explanation

R = (igrg)/I-ig = (50 x 10-3 x 5)/5-(50 x 10-3) = (0.25)/4.95 = 0.0505 = 0.05Ω
