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

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 $\Omega$)

The pole pieces of the magnet used in a pivoted coil galvanometer are

$A$ moving coil galvanometer has $100$ equal divisions. Its current sensitivity is $10$ divisions per milliampere and voltage sensitivity is $2$ divisions per millivolt. In order that each division reads $1 \ V$,the resistance in Ohm's needed to be connected in series with the coil will be

An ammeter whose resistance is $180\,\Omega$ gives full scale deflection when the current is $2\,mA$. The shunt required to convert it into an ammeter reading $20\,mA$ (in $\Omega$) is

Two galvanometers $A$ and $B$ require currents of $4 \ mA$ and $7 \ mA$,respectively,to produce the same deflection of $20$ divisions. If $S_{A}$ and $S_{B}$ are their sensitivities,respectively,then:
