In the diagram above, the galvanometer is converted to
Voltmeter
Ammeter
Voltameter
Hypsometer
Explication
When a galvanometer is connected to a shunt resistor, it is converted into an ammeter.
By connecting a shunt in parallel with a galvanometer, it can measure larger currents without getting damaged, turning it into an ammeter
