Options:

1230 Ω connected in series with galvanometer

2460 Ω connected in series with galvanometer

1230 Ω connected in parallel with galvanometer

2460 Ω connected in parallel with galvanometer

Correct Answer:

2460 Ω connected in series with galvanometer

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → 2460 Ω connected in series with galvanometer
