Question
In a circuit for finding the resistance of a \vert galvanometer by half deflection method,a 6 V battery and a high resistance of11 kohm are used.The figure of merit of the galvanometer is 60 μ A/division. In the absence of shunt resistance, the galvanometer produces a deflection of θ9 divisions when current flows in thecircuit. The value of the shunt resistance that can cause the deflection of θ/2, isclosest to:
