Vedclass · Answer

(D) For a moving coil galvanometer,the torque is given by $	au = NIAB \sin 	heta = k \phi$,where $N$ is the number of turns,$I$ is the current,$A$ is the area,$B$ is the magnetic field,and $k$ is the torsional constant.The current sensitivity is defined as $S_i = \frac{\phi}{I} = \frac{NBA}{k}$.If $N$ is doubled,$S_i$ becomes $2 	imes \frac{NBA}{k}$,so Statement $I$ is true.The voltage sensitivity is defined as $S_v = \frac{\phi}{V} = \frac{\phi}{IR} = \frac{S_i}{R} = \frac{NBA}{kR}$.When the number of turns $N$ is doubled,the length of the wire in the coil also doubles,which means the resistance $R$ of the coil also doubles $(R \propto N)$.Therefore,$S_v = \frac{(2N)BA}{k(2R)} = \frac{NBA}{kR}$.Since $S_v$ remains unchanged,Statement $II$ is false.

$A$ galvanometer of resistance $100 \Omega$ gives full scale deflection for a current of $1 \text{ mA}$. It is converted into an ammeter of range $0 - 10 \text{ A}$. The shunt required is: (in $\text{ }\Omega$)

When a shunt of $4\,\Omega$ is attached to a galvanometer,the deflection reduces to $\frac{1}{5}$th of its initial value. If an additional shunt of $4\,\Omega$ is attached in parallel to the first,what will be the new deflection?

Voltmeters $V_1$ and $V_2$ are connected in series across a $D.C.$ line. $V_1$ reads $80 \, V$ and has a resistance per volt of $200 \, \Omega/V$. $V_2$ has a total resistance of $32 \, k\Omega$. The line voltage is ............. (in $V$)
