A moving coil galvanometer has a coil of effective area \( A \), number of turns \( N \). The magnetic field \( B \) is radial. If current \( I \) is passed through the coil, the torque acting on the coil is:

  1. A \( NA^2BI \)
  2. B \( N^2A^2BI \)
  3. C \( NABI \)
  4. D \( NAB^2I \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \( NABI \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In a moving coil galvanometer, a radial magnetic field ensures that the plane of the coil is always parallel to the magnetic field \(\left(\theta=90^{\circ}\right.\) between the area vector and the field). Consequently, the deflecting torque is maximum and is given by the…
