Which one of the following modifications may ncrease the sensitivity of moving coil galvanometer?
$1^{st}$ Way : By using 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.
In the following hexagons, made up of two different material $P$ and $Q,$ current enters and leaves from points $X$ and $Y$ respectively. In which case the magnetic field at its centre is not zero.
The number of turns per unit length of a long solenoid is $10$ . If its average radius is $5 \,cm$ and it carries a current of $10 \,A$, then the ratio of flux densities obtained at the centre and at the end on the axis will be
The resistance of an ammeter is $13\, \Omega$ and its scale is graduated for a current upto $100$ $amps$. After an additional shunt has been connected to this ammeter it becomes possible to measure currents upto $750$ $ampere$ by this meter. The value of shunt-resistance is
An ammeter and a voltmeter of resistance $R$ are connected in series to an electric cell of negligible internal resistance. Their readings are $A$ and $V$ respectively. If another resistance $R$ is connected in parallel with the voltmeter
A circular coil of $20$ $turns$ and radius $10\, cm$ is placed in uniform magnetic field of $0.10\, T$ normal to the plane of the coil. If the current in coil is $5\, A$, then the torque acting on the coil will be...... $Nm$
A particle of mass $m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27}\, kg$ and charge $q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, C$ enters a region of uniform magnetic field of strength $1$ $tesla$ along the direction shown in the figure. The speed of the particle is $10^7\, m/s.$ The magnetic field is directed along the inward normal to the plane of the paper. The particle enters the field at $C$ and leaves at $D.$ Then the angle $\theta$ must be :-.........$^o$
