In a moving coil galvanometer,two moving coils $M_1$ and $M_2$ have the following particulars:
$R_1 = 5 \ \Omega, N_1 = 15, A_1 = 3.6 \times 10^{-3} \ m^2, B_1 = 0.25 \ T$
$R_2 = 7 \ \Omega, N_2 = 21, A_2 = 1.8 \times 10^{-3} \ m^2, B_2 = 0.50 \ T$
Assuming that the torsional constant of the springs is the same for both coils,what will be the ratio of the voltage sensitivity of $M_1$ and $M_2$?

  • A
    $1: 1$
  • B
    $1: 4$
  • C
    $1: 3$
  • D
    $1: 2$

$A$ galvanometer has a coil of resistance $200 \Omega$ with a full scale deflection at $20 \mu A$. The value of resistance to be added to use it as an ammeter of range $(0-20) mA$ is: (in $Omega$)

$A$ shunt of resistance $1\,\Omega$ is connected across a galvanometer of $120\,\Omega$ resistance. $A$ total current of $5.5\,A$ is passed through the combination,which gives full-scale deflection in the galvanometer. The current that would give full-scale deflection in the absence of the shunt is nearly ............... $A$.

The ratios of the voltage sensitivities,resistances and areas of the coils of two moving coil galvanometers $A$ and $B$ are $4:3$,$3:4$ and $1:2$ respectively. If the number of turns of the coil of galvanometer $A$ is $200$,then the number of turns of the coil of galvanometer $B$ is (All other quantities remain same in both the cases)

If an ammeter is connected in parallel to a circuit,it is likely to be damaged due to excess

The sensitivity of a galvanometer is $60 \text{ division/A}$. When a shunt is used,its sensitivity becomes $10 \text{ division/A}$. If the galvanometer is of resistance $20 \ \Omega$,the value of shunt used is (in $Omega$)
