Current sensitivity

$\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{s}}=\frac{\mathrm{NBA}}{\mathrm{c}}$

Voltage sensitivity

$\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{s}}=\frac{\mathrm{NBA}}{\mathrm{CR}_{\mathrm{G}}}$

So, resistance of galvanometer

$R_{G}=\frac{l_{s}}{V_{s}}=\frac{5 \times 1}{20 \times 10^{-3}}=\frac{5000}{20}=250\, \Omega$
