Solution

Torque acts on a current carrying coil suspended in the uniform magnetic field. due to this, the coil rotates.
Hence, the deflection in the coil of a moving coil galvanometer is directly proportional to the current flowing in the coil.

And the advantage of radial magnetic field in the galvanometer are
Maximum Torque is experienced
Torque is uniform for all the position of the coil.
