Current sensitivities of two galvanometers $G_1$ and $G_2$ of resistances $100 \ \Omega$ and $50 \ \Omega$ are $10^8 \ \text{div/A}$ and $0.5 \times 10^5 \ \text{div/A}$ respectively. The galvanometer in which the voltage sensitivity is more is

  • A
    Same in both galvanometers
  • B
    More in $G_2$
  • C
    Zero
  • D
    More in $G_1$

The coil in a moving coil galvanometer experiences a torque proportional to the current passed through it. If a steady current $i$ is passed through it,the deflection of the coil is found to be $90^o$. Now,the steady current is switched off and a charge $Q$ is suddenly passed through the coil. If the coil has $N$ turns of area $A$ each and its moment of inertia is $I$ about the axis it is going to rotate,then the maximum angle through which it deflects upon passing $Q$ is:

When a current of $5 \ mA$ is passed through a galvanometer having a coil of resistance $15 \ \Omega$,it shows full scale deflection. The value of the resistance to be put in series with the galvanometer to convert it into a voltmeter of range $0 - 10 \ V$ is

In a galvanometer,the deflection becomes one half when the galvanometer is shunted by a $20\,\Omega$ resistor. The galvanometer resistance is ............... $\Omega$.

The sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer is inversely proportional to
