a galvanometer has a resistance of 20 Ω and reads full scale when 0.2V is applied across it .to convert it into a 10 A ammeter ,the galvanometer coil should have a 1)0.05Ω resistor connected across it 2)100Ω resistor connected across it 3)0.02Ω resistor connected across it 4)200Ω resistor connected in series with it
