To convert a moving-coil galvanometer into a voltmeter, an external resistance is added in series with the galvanometer. The value of the external resistance is chosen so that the full-scale deflection of the galvanometer corresponds to the maximum voltage that the voltmeter is intended to measure. In this case, the moving-coil galvanometer gives a full-scale deflection with a current of 0.005A. To convert it into a voltmeter that reads up to 5V, an external resistance of 975\(\Omega\) is used. Using Ohm's Law, we can calculate the resistance of the galvanometer (meter resistance) as follows: Meter resistance = (maximum voltage / full-scale current) - external resistance Meter resistance = (5 V / 0.005 A) - 975\(\Omega\) Meter resistance = 1000\(\Omega\) - 975\(\Omega\) Meter resistance = 25\(\Omega\) Therefore, the resistance of the meter is 25.00\(\Omega\). Option C is the correct answer.
