NCERT Based Test: The Moving Coil Galvanometer - Question 3

If the current sensitivity of a galvanometer is doubled, then its voltage sensitivity will be

Detailed Solution for NCERT Based Test: The Moving Coil Galvanometer - Question 3

Current sensitivity of galvanometer is deflection per unit current i.e

Similarly voltage sensitivity is deflection per unit voltage
i.e. 

From (i) and (ii)
Voltage sensitivity = current sensitivity × 1/resistance
Now if current sensitivity is doubled, then the resistance in the circuit will also be doubled since it is proportional to the length of the wire, then voltage sensitivity

= (current sensitivity) × 1 / (resistance)
Hence, voltage sensitivity will remain unchanged

NCERT Based Test: The Moving Coil Galvanometer - Question 4

A moving coil galvanometer can be converted into an ammeter by:

Detailed Solution for NCERT Based Test: The Moving Coil Galvanometer - Question 4

To utilise a galvanometer (G) as an ammeter, there is the difficulty in measurement of current due to the sensitivity of galvanometer and also the connection of galvanometer with a very large resistance in series that may change the value of current in the circuit.
To overcome these difficulties one attaches a small resistance rs called shunt resistance in parallel with the galvanometer coil as shown in the figure.
