eter, it may be placed in ashunt, and the fraction of the current passing throughwill be determined by the ratio of the resistance of thegalvanometer and that in the other arm of the shunt. Bythe law of shunts, —C, fitC2 iVwhere 0 is the current and Ris the resistance.

Whenthe plugs are all inserted, the resistance of the box isreckoned as zero. When P1 is removed, a resistance Rxis put into the circuit, AB. The resistance of the coilsis…
