Question
What is moving coil galvanometer used for?
✓
Answer
- Measurement of small currents
Moving Coil Galvanometer is an instrument used for the detection and measurement of current.
It is sensitive instrument and can measure current even if it is only a few microamperes.
It was invented by Johann Schweigger in the 1800s.
