To convert a basic galvanometer into a voltmeter, one should connect a:
ALow resistance in parallel (shunt)
BHigh resistance in series
CLow resistance in series
DHigh resistance in parallel
Explanation
To convert a sensitive D’Arsonval galvanometer into a voltmeter capable of measuring high voltages, a high resistance (called a multiplier resistance Rm) is connected in series with the galvanometer coil to limit current.
