Q.
Read the two statements carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below:
Statement -1:
The tangent galvanometer can be made more sensitive by increasing the number of turns of its coil.

Q.
Assertion :Increasing the current sensitivity of a galvanometer necessarily increases the voltage sensitivity. Reason: Voltage sensitivity is inversely proportional to current sensitivity.
Q.
Assertion :When number of turns in a coil is doubled, coefficient of self-inductance of the coil becomes 4 times. Reason: This is because self inductance is directly proportional to the square of number of turns in a coil.
