Define current sensitivity and voltage sensitivity of a galvanometer. Increasing the current sensitivity may not necessarily increase the voltage sensitivity of a galvanometer. Justify,
ReportQuestion
Current sensitivity : It is defined as the deflection of coil per unit current flowing in it.
Voltage sensitivity : It is defined on the deflection of coil per unit potential difference across its ends.
When number of turns N is doubled then the current sensitivity ∝ N is doubled;
but at the same time the resistance of galvanometer coil G will also be doubled so voltage sensitivity Sv ∝ N / Gwill remain unchanged;
Hence, increasing current sensitivity does not necessarily increase the voltage sensitivity.
