That won't work. To convert an ammeter (a galvanometer is a very sensitive type of ammeter) you connect a high value resistor in series with it.
in voltmeter we have internal Resistance and connected in series , to current don't transfer in voltmeter , and we have internal resistance in ammeter and connected in parallel , to most current transfer through the ammeter.
Depends. What did you want to measure? If it's voltage drop across the incandescent element, then you had better hook up your infinite resistance voltmeter in parallel with the lamp.
A voltmeter can be connected in parallel with a resistor to show the voltage across the resistor.
It depends on the resistance of the galvanometer and its full scale current. A 100 ohm meter reading 1 milliampere would require 0.1 volts to reach full scale, so it would require about 0.1 ohms in parallel to become a 1 ampere ammeter.
In parallel.
Resistance is connected in parallel with voltmeter or say, voltmeter is connected in parallel with resistance.
in voltmeter we have internal Resistance and connected in series , to current don't transfer in voltmeter , and we have internal resistance in ammeter and connected in parallel , to most current transfer through the ammeter.
generally voltmeters are connected in parallel in the circuit.If the voltmeter resistance is lower as it increases the current rating,because by connecting parallel we are decreasing the resistance,so if the voltmeter resistance is not too much higher it leads to burning of the meter,For that we can conclude that the in ideal the voltmeter has infinite resistance.
A shunt resistance is a low resistance connected parallel to the galvanometer so that a large portion of current passes through the low resistance and a small fraction of current passes through the galvanometer this saves the galvanometer from damage

A voltmeter is connected in parallel in an electrical circuit.
By attaching a resistance in parallel connection with the galvanometer. Or when a low resistor connected in parallel with galvanometer ,the galvanometer is converted in ammeter. and the resistor is called shunt resistance.
A voltmeter can be connected in parallel with a resistor to show the voltage across the resistor.
Since Galvanometer is a very sensitive instrument therefore it can't measure heavy currents. In order to convert a Galvanometer into an Ammeter, a very low resistance known as "shunt" resistance is connected in parallel to Galvanometer. Value of shunt is so adjusted that most of the current passes through the shunt. In this way a Galvanometer is converted into Ammeter and can measure heavy currents without fully deflected.
An ammeter is connected in series. A voltmeter is connected in parallel. ammeter should always be connected in series instead of parallel becoz it is a low resistance device and we know that resistance is inversly proportional to current so more current will pass through it and if it is connected in parallel than it may get damaged
Ammeter is coneccted in series with circuit but Voltmeter is connected in parallel.
To measure voltage in a parallel circuit, connect the voltmeter's probes across the component for which you want to measure the voltage. Ensure the positive probe of the voltmeter is connected to the positive side of the component and the negative probe to the negative side. The voltmeter will then display the voltage across that component.
