$A$ moving coil galvanometer has a rectangular wire coil of enclosed area $0.001 \ m^2$ and $500$ turns. The coil operates in a radial magnetic field of $0.2 \ T$ and carries a current of $6 \pi \times 10^{-8} \ A$. If the torsional spring constant is $6 \times 10^{-7} \ N-m/rad$, then the angular deflection of the coil in radians is

The resistance of a galvanometer is $50\, \Omega$ and the maximum current which can be passed through it is $0.002\, A$. What resistance must be connected to it in order to convert it into an ammeter of range $0 - 0.5\, A$?

To convert a galvanometer into an ammeter,a shunt of $0.01\,\Omega$ is used. The resistance of the galvanometer coil is $50\,\Omega$ and its maximum deflection current is $20\,mA$. The range of the ammeter is:

$A$ 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:
