What is moving coil galvanometer used for?
- AMeasurement of voltage only
- BMeasurement of resistance
- CMeasurement of small currents
- DMeasurement of electric field
✓
Answer
- Measurement of small currents
Explanation:
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.
