Question
Reason (R): Shunt may be connected in series or in parallel with ammeter.Assertion (A): Shunt of an ammeter has a low resistance.Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of ABoth A and R are true but R is not correct explanation of AA is true R is falseA is false R is trueBoth A and R are false
Solution
The assertion (A) is true: the shunt of an ammeter does indeed have a low resistance. This is because it is designed to divert the majority of the current away from the ammeter, allowing only a small, manageable amount to pass through the meter itself.
The reason (R) is false: a shunt is not connected in series with an ammeter, it is connected in parallel. This parallel connection allows the shunt to carry the majority of the current, protecting the ammeter from high current levels.
Therefore, the answer is "A is true R is false".
