JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 4. Moving charges and magnetism

The current sensitivity of moving coil galvanometer is increased by \(25 \%\). This increase is achieved only by changing in the number of turns of coils and area of cross section of the wire while keeping the resistance of galvanometer coil constant. The percentage change in the voltage sensitivity will be \(...........\%\)

  1. A \(+25\)
  2. B \(-50\)
  3. C \(0\)
  4. D \(-25\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(+25\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I _{ s }=\frac{ NBA }{ C } \& V _{ s }=\frac{ NBA }{ CG }\) \(\Rightarrow V_{ s }=\frac{I_s}{G}\), If \(G\) (galvanometer resistance) is constant, then \(V _{ S } \propto I_S\) so percentage change in \(V_S\) is also \(25 \%\).
