A moving coil galvanometer, having a resistance G, produces full scale deflection when a current $\displaystyle \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}$ flows through it. This galvanometer can be converted into (i) an ammeter of range $\displaystyle 0$ to $\displaystyle \mathrm{I}_0\left(\mathrm{I}_0>\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}\right)$ by connecting a shunt resistance $\displaystyle \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{A}}$ to it and (ii) into a voltmeter of range $\displaystyle 0$ to $\displaystyle \mathrm{V}\left(\mathrm{V}=\mathrm{GI}_0\right)$ by connecting a series resistance $\displaystyle \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{V}}$ to it. Then,
Official answer
(1)
$\displaystyle R_A R_V=G^2 \text { and } \frac{R_A}{R_V}=\left(\frac{I_g}{I_0-I_g}\right)^2$
