    A tangent galvanometer has a coil of 25 turns and radius of 15 cm. The horizontal component of the earth?s magnetic field is 3 ´ 10?5 T. The current required to produce a deflection of 45o in it, is [MP PMT 2000]

    A)            0.29 A                                      

    B)            1.2 A

    C)            3.6 ´ 10?5 A                           

    D)            0.14 A

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               \[i=\frac{2r{{B}_{H}}}{{{\mu }_{0}}N}\tan \theta \] \[\Rightarrow i=\frac{2\times 15\times {{10}^{-2}}\times 3\times {{10}^{-5}}}{4\pi \times {{10}^{-7}}\times 25}\times \tan {{45}^{o}}\]\[\Rightarrow i=0.29\ A\]
