  • A
    $5 \Omega$
  • B
    $5 \times 10^{-2} \Omega$
  • C
    $0.5 \Omega$
  • D

The circular coil of a galvanometer has $50$ turns. The coil has a radius of $1 \ cm$. The coil is placed in a radial magnetic field of $0.010 \ T$. The torsion coefficient of the spring on which the coil hangs is $3 \times 10^{-7} \ N-m-rad^{-1}$. Determine the deflection of the galvanometer's pointer if the current through the coil is $1.0 \ mA$. (in $^{\circ}$)

The resistance of a galvanometer is $25\,\Omega$ and it requires $50\,\mu A$ for full-scale deflection. The value of the shunt resistance required to convert it into an ammeter of $5\,A$ range is:

$A$ certain current passing through a galvanometer produces a deflection of $100$ divisions. When a shunt of $1 \ \Omega$ is connected, the deflection reduces to $1$ division. The galvanometer resistance is: (in $\Omega$)

In order to increase the sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer,one should decrease

When an additional resistance $1980 \ \Omega$ is connected in series with a voltmeter,each scale division has $100$ times larger value. The resistance of the voltmeter is (in $Omega$)
