MCQ
The sensitivity of a tangent galvanometer is increased if
  • A
    Number of turn decreases
  • Number of turn increases
  • C
    Field increases
  • D
    None of the above

Answer

Correct option: B.
Number of turn increases
b
(b)Sensitivity $S = \frac{\theta }{i} = \frac{\theta }{{K\tan \theta }}$ where $K = \frac{{2R{B_H}}}{{{\mu _0}N}}$
For increasing sensitivity $K$ should be decreased and hence number of turns should be increased.
