Application +4 | -1
The coil of a galvanometer is 0.02 m×0.08 m0.02 \mathrm{~m} \times 0.08 \mathrm{~m} It consists of 200 turns of fine wire and is in a magnetic field of 0.2 tesla. The restoring torque constant of the suspension fibre is 10−6Nm deg−110^{-6} \mathrm{Nm} \mathrm{~deg}^{-1}. Assuming the magnetic field to be radial, (a) what is the maximum current that can be measured by this galvanometer, if the scale can accommodate 30∘30^{\circ} deflection ? (b) What is the smallest current that can be detected, if the minimum observable deflection is 0.1 degree?

Correct option: A
4.69×10−4 A;  1.56×10−6 A4.69 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~A};\,\,1.56\times10^{-6}\mathrm{~A}
Option A (4.69×10−4 A;,1.56×10−6 A4.69 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~A};\\,1.56\times10^{-6}\mathrm{~A}) is correct because it correctly calculates the maximum and minimum current based on the given parameters and the galvanometer's properties.
