Two scales on a nondigital voltmeter measure voltages up to 20.0 and 27.0 V, respectively. The resistance connected in series with the galvanometer is 1680 Ω for the 20.0-V scale and 2930 Ω for the 27.0-V scale. Determine the coil resistance.
let the coil resistance is r
let the full scale current is I
for measuring 20 V
at full scale
20 = I *(1680 + r) ---(1)
for 27 V
27 = I*(2930 + r) ---(2)
from equation 1 and 2
27/20 =(2930 + r)/ (1680 + r)
solving for r
r = 1891.4 Ohm
the coil resistance is 1891.4 Ohm

The coil of wire in a galvanometer has a resistance of RC = 75.0 Ω. The galvanometer exhibits a full-scale deflection when the current through it is 0.200 mA. A resistor is connected in series with this combination so as to produce a voltmeter. The voltmeter is to have a full-scale deflection when it measures a potential difference of 14.0 V. What is the resistance of this resistor?
