This question has statement I and statement II. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement- I: Higher the range, greater is the resistance of ammeter.
Statement- II: To increase the range of ammeter, additional shunt needs to be used across it.

  • Statement – I is true, Statement – II is true, Statement – II is the correct explanation of statement- I.

  • Statement – I is true, Statement – II is true, Statement – II is not the correct explanation of Statement–I.

  • Statement – I is true, statement – II is false.

  • Statement – I is true, statement – II is false.
