Question

What is a Galvanometer used for?

Answer 1

Galvanometer

1. A galvanometer is a device that is used to detect a small electric current or measure its magnitude.
2. The galvanometer is basically a device that shows deflection in its needle when current passed through it.
3. A galvanometer can be used to check whether current is passing through it or not by looking at the deflection in its needle.
4. The galvanometer is used to measure the value of current in the circuit by connecting it in parallel to low resistance.
5. The galvanometer is used to measure the voltage by connecting it in series with high resistance.
