The current measuring part of the Avometer consists of a number of low resistors connected ...
Correct answer: B. Parallel with galvanometer
- A. At an angle of 180 degrees with the galvanometer
- B. Parallel with galvanometer
- C. At an angle of 45 degrees With the galvanometer
- D. Perpendicular with the galvanometer
Explanation
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 the Galvanometer.

About Electromagnetism
Magnetic flux density and magnetic flux describe the strength of a magnetic field and the field passing through a surface. A charged particle moving through a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its velocity and may follow circular or helical motion, depending on the angle between velocity and field.
