What do you mean by the current sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer? Resistance of a galvanometer is \( 50 \, \Omega \) and for full-scale deflection, the current is \( 0.05 \, \mathrm{A} \). What would be the required length of a wire to convert it into an ammeter of 5 A range? (Area of cross-section of wire = \( 2.7 \times 10^{-6} \, \mathrm{m^2} \), specific resistance of the wire material = \( 5.0 \times 10^{-7} \, \Omega \cdot \mathrm{m} \))
