A galvanometer with resistance $5\,\Omega$ is intended for use in a null method. To prevent the galvanometer from being damaged by an excessively large initial current, resistors with resistance $0.5\,\Omega$ and $1\,\text{k}\Omega$ are available. Which arrangement would give this protection?
- Athe $0.5\,\Omega$ resistor in series with the galvanometer
- Bthe $0.5\,\Omega$ resistor in parallel with the galvanometer and this combination placed in series with the $1\,\text{k}\Omega$ resistor
- Cthe $1\,\text{k}\Omega$ resistor in parallel with the galvanometer
- Dthe $1\,\text{k}\Omega$ resistor in parallel with the galvanometer and this combination placed in series with the $0.5\,\Omega$ resistor
