A current of 200 μA deflects the coil of a moving coil galvanometer through 60°. The current to cause deflection through π10 radian is
  1. 30 μA
  2. 120 μA
  3. 60 μA
  4. 180 μA

Solution

In a moving coil galvanometer, the current is related to the angle of deflection by the formula:

iθ   ...1

From equation (1), it follow sthat
i2i1=θ2θ1i2200 μA=π10π3=310i2=60 μA
