    Two identical moving coil galvanometer have $10 \Omega$ resistance and full scale deflection at $2 \mu A$ current. One of them is converted into a voltmeter of $100 mV$ full scale reading and the other into an Ammeter of $1 mA$ full scale current using appropriate resistors. These are then used to measure the voltage and current in the Ohm's law experiment with $R =1000 \Omega$ resistor by using an ideal cell. Which of the following statement( $s$ ) is/are correct?

    $(1)$ The measured value of $R$ will be $978 \Omega$

    $(2)$ The resistance of the Voltmeter will be $100 k \Omega$.

    $(3)$ The resistance of the Ammeter will be $0.02 \Omega$ (round off to $2^{\text {nd }}$ decimal place)

    $(4)$ If the ideal cell is replaced by a cell having internal resistance of $5 \Omega$ then the measured value of $R$ will be more than $1000 \Omega$.
