High resistance in parallel connected with galvanometer to form voltmeter?
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.

If you want to measure a current greater than the full scale deflection of the constructed ammeter in this case should the resistance in parallel with the galvanometer be increased or decreased?
A: the resistance should be decreased to 1/2 its value for half scale reading or use any ratio [ decrease] to obtain a correct reading.
Which voltmeter will used for measuring 50kv dc?
Any standard voltmeter but however the voltage to be measured must be stepped down to a safe value using a Potential transformer.
How do you measure rms value of complex waveform?
rms value is measured using voltmeter with the use of heat sensing elements.
What resistance value is add to convert a galvanometer into a voltmeter?
It depends on the resistance of the galvanometer and the current required to reach full scale. A 100 ohm meter requiring 1 milliampere would require 99.9 KOhms in series to become a 100 volt voltmeter.

How do you convert galvanometer to an ohmmeter?
"An ohmmeter is an electrical instrument that measures electrical resistance, the opposition to an electric current."The unit of measurement for resistance is ohms (Ω).It is useful device for rapid measurement of resistance. It is consist of galvanometer and adjustable resistance Rs of known value and a cell connected in series. The resistance R to be measured is connected between the terminals.The series resistance Rs is so adjusted that when the terminals are short circuited i.e., when R = 0, the galvanometer gives full scale deflection. So the extreme graduation of the usual scale the galvanometer is marked 0 for resistance measurement. When terminals are not joined no current passes through the galvanometer and its deflection will be zero . Thus zero of the scale marked as infinity. . When R is not infinite , the galvanometer deflects to some intermediate point depending on the value of R scale can be calibrated to read the resistance directly.
How you convert galvanometer into ammeter in detail?
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.
How can you convert galvanometer into ammeter?
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.
How do you measure the resistance of a motor?
we can measure the resistance of the motor by using voltmeter ammeter method of by directly using a multimeter across the armature terminals of the motor in voltmeter ammeter method we should use a less value of dc voltage to find the resistance
How do you convert a galvanometer to an ammeter?
A galvanometer is an instrument used to measure and detect electric currents. While that seems a lot similar to an ammeter, it only deals with measuring relatively small or mediocre currents. Although an ammeter is now much preferred due to its more accurate, faster, and advanced readings, there is a way to "convert" a galvanometer to function like an ammeter. A current separator or divider, known as a shunt, allows a simple meter to be calibrated (adjusted) to measure larger currents. The shunt, parallel to the coil of your galvanometer, allows more electric currents to circulate around the circuit, thus obtaining more current.
Why ammeter works as short circuited in circuit?
The ammeter is basically a Galvanometer with a small resistance to parallel with it. As we know that, if we connect two resistances in parallel, then the equivalent resistance is equal to the the value which is less than the value of lowest resistance connected in parallel. suppose if we connect 1 ohm & 0.1 ohm in parallel, then the equivalent of it will be 0.0909 ohm (less than 0.1 ohm). means in parallel circuit the equivalent resistance become smaller. as like this a small parallel resistance across galvanometer decreases the value of the value of resistance of it. since it gets very small value, so it connected in series to measure the value of current in the circuit. due to very low resistance, it drops very low voltage on it ( upto can be negligible) so we assume that it works like a short circuit.
How do you convert voltmeter into ammeter?
An ammeter measures the voltage across a resistor with a known value, andfrom that it calculates the current through the resistor. The resistor has to bea very small value, so that it doesn't change the current in the circuit by beingplaced in line with it.If you really want to do this, then you need a resistor made for the purpose,with a resistance of not more than 1 ohm. You can buy one, or maybe roll upa big ball of insulated wire that has a resistance of 1/2 or 3/4 ohm. (How youwould measure that accurately is another question.) When you have thatfractional-ohm resistor, connect the voltmeter across its ends, and you haveyour ammeter. To use it, open (break) the circuit whose current you want tomeasure, and connect your meter into the hole. Read the voltmeter. Thecurrent passing through your resistor is(the voltmeter reading) divided by (the resistance of your resistor).There are other design details to consider, which we won't go into at this time.If you actually try this, don't use it to measure currents greater than maybe1 Ampere. How will you know the current before you've measured it ? That'sexactly the appropriate question. The answer is: Experience. If you haven'tgot it, then maybe you shouldn't be building your own test equipment yet.
How would you extend the range of a voltmeter and ammeter?
if we would like to expand the range of voltmeter we should change the voltmeter resistance even to be appropriate . we should use a variable resistance to control of its value . I would extend the range of a voltmeter by adding resistance in series with it. I would extend the range of an ammeter by connecting resistance in paerallel with it.
How does a series circuit work with an ammeter?
Actually ammeter is a galvanometer which is shunted by a resistance called shunt. For large currents major part of it is bypassed through the shunt. The parallel combination of shunt resistance and meter resistance is added to the circuit resistances , so the value indicated by the ammeter is slightly lesser than the actually value.
