A galvanometer with resistance RG=1000 Ω and fullscale reading 0.01mA is coverted to Analog Ammeter by connecting three resistors in parallel. The shunt resistor values are RS1 = 9 Ω , RS2 = 9 Ω , RS3 =9 Ω. What is maximum current the Analog Ammeter can measure?
KVL and KCL
KVL stands for Kirchhoff voltage law. KVL states that the total voltage drops around the loop in any closed electric circuit is equal to the sum of total voltage drop in the same closed loop.
Sign Convention
Science and technology incorporate some ideas and techniques of their own to understand a system skilfully and easily. These techniques are called conventions. For example: Sign conventions of mirrors are used to understand the phenomenon of reflection and refraction in an easier way.
