Certain galvanometers have a fixed core made of non-magnetic metallic material. The function of this metallic material is

  • A
    to oscillate the coil in magnetic field for a longer period of time
  • B
    to bring the coil to rest quickly
  • C
    to produce a large deflecting torque on the coil
  • D
    to make the magnetic field radial

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $100 \Omega$ requires $10 \mu A$ current for full-scale deflection. If a shunt resistance of $1 \Omega$ is connected in parallel to convert it into an ammeter, what is the minimum current required to obtain full-scale deflection (in $\text{ mA}$)?

In a suspended-type moving coil galvanometer,a quartz suspension is used because:

When a galvanometer is shunted by a resistance $s$,its current capacity increases $n$ times. If the same galvanometer is shunted by another resistance $s_1$,its capacity will increase to $n_1$ times the original current. The value of $n_1$ is
