The number of turns of the coil of a moving coil galvanometer is increased in order to increase current sensitivity by 50%. The percentage change in voltage sensitivity of the galvanometer will be :
  1. 100%
  2. 50%
  3. 75%
  4. 0%

Solution

Current sensitivity = Voltage sensitivity ×R

If current sensitivity is made 1.5 times, then R also increase 1.5 times.

Hence, voltage sensitivity =1.5× current sensitivity 1.5×R

= no change.
