A galvanometer having a coil resistance of \(60~ \Omega\) shows full-scale deflection when a current of \(1.0\) A passes through it. It can be converted into an ammeter to read currents up to \(5.0\) A by:
| 1. | Putting in parallel, a resistance of \(24~ \Omega\) |
| 2. | Putting in series, a resistance of \(15~ \Omega\) |
| 3. | Putting in series, a resistance of \(240~ \Omega\) |
| 4. | Putting in parallel, a resistance of \(15~ \Omega\) |

A galvanometer of resistance \(50~\Omega\) is connected to a battery of \(3~\text V\) along with a resistance of \(2950~\Omega\) in series. A full-scale deflection of \(30\) divisions is obtained in the galvanometer. In order to reduce its deflection to \(20\) divisions, the resistance added in series should be:
1. \(1050~ \Omega\)
2. \(1550~ \Omega\)
3. \(2050~ \Omega\)
4. \(1500~ \Omega\)
