(b) Show how to convert the galvanometer to a voltmeter reading 500 mV full scale, and compute the series resistance.
When switch S in (Figure 1) is open, the voltmeter V of the battery reads 3.13 V. When
the switch is closed, the voltmeter reading drops to 2.93 V, and the ammeter A reads
1.69 A. Assume that the two meters are ideal, so they don't affect the circuit.
