Two tangent galvanometers $A$ and $B$ are identical except in their number of turns. They are connected in series. On passing a current through them,deflections of $60^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$ are produced. The ratio of the number of turns in $A$ and $B$ is

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

Which one of the following modifications may increase the sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer?
$1^{st}$ Way: By using a spring of smaller torsion constant.
$2^{nd}$ Way: By using a smaller coil.
$3^{rd}$ Way: By using a stronger magnet.
$4^{th}$ Way: By using a coil having fewer number of turns.

$A$ galvanometer having a resistance $G$ and current $I_g$ flowing in it,produces full-scale deflection. If $S_1$ is the value of the shunt which converts it into an ammeter of range $0-I$ and $S_2$ is the value of the shunt for range $0-8I$,then the ratio $\frac{S_1}{S_2}$ will be:

To reduce the current flowing through a coil of resistance $90\, \Omega$ by $90\%$,a resistor of what value in $\Omega$ must be connected in parallel?

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 $M_2$?

$A$ galvanometer of resistance '$G$' is shunted by a resistance of '$S$' ohm. To keep the main current in the circuit unchanged,the resistance to be put in series with the galvanometer is:
