If the number of turns in the coil of galvanometer are decreased then the resistance of galvanometer
- A may increase Or decrease.
- B increaseS.
- C remains the same
- D decreases.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) decreases.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Resistance of the wire is proportional to its length. If the number of turns is decreased, the length of the wire decreases, and hence the resistance decreases.
