प्रश्न
Can a galvanometer as such be used for measuring the current? Explain.
उत्तर
Yes a galvanometer can be used for measuring the current
Conversion of a galvanometer into an ammeter
A shunt (low resistance) is connected in parallel with a galvanometer.
`S=(I_g/(I-I_g))G`
Here,
I = total current in circuit
G = resistance of the galvanometer
S = resistance of the shunt
Ig = current through the galvanometer

An ideal voltmeter has _______.
(A) low resistance
(b) high resistance
(C) infinite resistance
(D) zero resistance
Increasing the current sensitivity of a galvanometer may not necessarily increase its voltage sensitivity. Explain, giving reason.
A galvanometer has a resistance of 16Ω. It shows full scale deflection, when a current of 20 mA is passed through it. The only shunt resistance available is 0.06 which is not appropriate to convert a galvanometer into an ammeter. How much resistance should be connected in series with the coil of galvanometer, so that the range of ammeter is 8 A?
Draw a labelled diagram of a moving coil galvanometer and explain its working. What is the function of radial magnetic field inside the coil?
A coil of radius 10 cm and resistance 40 Ω has 1000 turns. It is placed with its plane vertical and its axis parallel to the magnetic meridian. The coil is connected to a galvanometer and is rotated about the vertical diameter through an angle of 180°. Find the charge which flows through the galvanometer if the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field is BH = 3.0 × 10−5 T.
Why are the pole pieces of a horseshoe magnet in a moving coil galvanometer made cylinder in shape?
A moving coil galvanometer can be converted into an ammeter by ______.
A galvanometer having a coil resistance of 60 Ω shows full-scale deflection when a current of 1.0 amp passes through it. It can be converted into an ammeter to read currents up to 5.0 amp by:
The figure below shows a circuit containing an ammeter A, a galvanometer G and a plug key K. When the key is closed:
