Solution
The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion The magnetic field used in a moving coil galvanometer is very strong. The earth's magnetic field is quite weak as compared to the magnetic field produced by the field magnet. Practically the coil rotates under the effect of the string magnetic field due to the field magnet and the weak magnetic field due to the earth does not affect the working of the moving coil galvanometer.
