lexion is 100 sCaledivisions. To produce a current of Ol ampere a potentialdifference of 01 volt is required in this case, and eachdivision of the scale registers the passage of a milliampereor the application of a millivolt. 221-222] ELECTROMAGNETIC INSTRUMENTS 365 Now let us shunt the poles ^, ^… … Fig. 228. for we have seen that if S be the resistance of the shunt, Gthat of the galvanometer, then the current through thegalvanometer coil is SI{S + G) of the whole current. Hence in the case supposed the sensitiveness has beenreduced one hundredfold; the deflexion for a total currentof 0*1…
