Question 12

A student is provided with a variable voltage source $$V$$, a test resistor $$R_T = 10\Omega$$, two identical galvanometers $$G_1$$ and $$G_2$$ and two additional resistors, $$R_1 = 10M\Omega$$ and $$R_2 = 0.001\Omega$$. For conducting an experiment to verify ohm's law, the most suitable circuit is:

A voltmeter (galvanometer $$G$$ in series with a high resistance $$R_{\text{high}}$$) must be connected in parallel with the load, while an ammeter (galvanometer $$G$$ in parallel with a low resistance $$R_{\text{low}}$$) must be connected in series.

Voltmeter requirements:   $$R_V \to \infty \implies G_1 \text{ in series with } R_1 = 10\text{ M}\Omega$$

Ammeter requirements:    $$R_A \to 0 \implies G_2 \text{ in parallel with } R_2 = 0.001\ \Omega$$

Circuit connection rules:

$$\text{Voltmeter must be parallel to } R_T \implies \text{Satisfied by Option (A)}$$

$$\text{Ammeter must be in series with } R_T \implies \text{Satisfied by Option (A)}$$
