How can you convert a galvanometer into an ammeter and a voltmeter? A PMMC galvanometer of 60 resistance reads up to 60 mA. Determine the value of the resistance (i) when connected in parallel to enable the instrument to read up to 1.20 A and (ii) when connected in series to enable it to read 12 V.
