Class 12PhysicsMoving Charges and MagnetismThe Moving Coil Galvanometer (Sensitivity) and Ammeter and Voltmeter Conversion
Easy$A$ stray magnetic field does $\underline{\text{NOT}}$ affect the deflection of a moving coil galvanometer because
- Amagnetic field inside the galvanometer is zero.
- Bmagnetic field is equal to the earth's magnetic field.
- Cmagnetic field inside the galvanometer is very strong.
- Dmagnetic field inside the galvanometer is very weak.
