ammeter
If the galvanometer measures the current, and most of the current goes through the shunt resistance branch, how dpes the galvanometer show all the current in the wire?

Note for OP
+solved @user1 @user2... to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the users who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.Naah mate.. Actually A small resistance, about 1/9th of the resistance of Galvanometer(commonly known as shunt)is connected in parallel to it to make a Ammeter.. Hence the parallel connection lowers overall resistance, and hence, nearly all of the current flows through the shunt resistance and can provide accurate measurements
Hm okk
