What are the readings for the experiment - to convert a galvanometer int ammeter?
A galvanometer is a type of ammeter an instrument for detecting and measuring electric current. A galvanometer can be converted into ammeter by connecting resistance in parallel with it.
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.
How is an ammeter converted to a voltmeter?
The ammeter is used in series, because you want to measure the current through a circuit. The voltmeter is used in parallel, because you want to measure the voltage across a circuit. If you were to place the voltmeter in series, no current would flow because of the relatively high impedance of the voltmeter. If you were to place the ammeter in parallel, you would create a short-circuit, due to the relatively low impedance of the ammeter.
What is the difference between ammeter and galvanometer?

What value of resistance is used to convert galvanometer into voltmeter?
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.

A galvanometer is a type of ammeter an instrument for detecting and measuring electric current. A galvanometer can be converted into ammeter by connecting resistance in parallel with it.
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.
Moving coil galvanometer converted into a multi range ammeter?
To convert a moving coil galvanometer into a multi-range ammeter, you can add shunt resistors of different values in parallel to the galvanometer. By selecting the appropriate shunt resistor, you can change the range of the ammeter. This allows the ammeter to measure a wide range of currents while still using the sensitive galvanometer as the measuring element.
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.
Why galvanometer is converted into ammeter?
A galvanometer is converted into an ammeter by adding a low resistance called a shunt in parallel with the galvanometer coil. This shunt diverts most of the current around the galvanometer, allowing it to measure higher currents accurately. The shunt creates a parallel path with a known resistance, which scales the current to provide a direct reading on the ammeter.
What is a galvanometer called when calibrated to read current?
A galvanometer calibrated to read current is called an ammeter. It is used to measure the flow of electric current in a circuit.
What is the difference between a galvanometer and an ammeter?
A galvanometer is a device used to detect small electric currents, while an ammeter is a device used to measure the strength of electric currents. The main difference is that a galvanometer is more sensitive and used for detecting small currents, while an ammeter is used for measuring larger currents.
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.
What kind of meter is created when is shunt is added to a galvanometer?
A galvanometer with a low resistance shunt in parallel makes an ammeter.
A moving coil galvanometer can be used as an ammeter by adding?
a series resistence with its coil
What instrument is used in a lab to measure electrical cureent?
Either an ammeter or a galvanometer is.
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.
