Angular Deflection of Moving Iron Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Deflection Angle in Iron = (0.5*(Current in Iron)^2*Inductance Change with Angle)/Spring Constant
θ = (0.5*(imi)^2*dL|dθ)/Kmi
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Deflection Angle in Iron - (Measured in Radian) - Deflection Angle in Iron shows how much the needle moves in response to electrical current, indicating the measured quantity's magnitude.
Current in Iron - (Measured in Ampere) - Current in Iron causes the iron vane to move due to magnetic forces, deflecting the pointer. The extent of deflection indicates the magnitude of the current flowing through the instrument.
Inductance Change with Angle - (Measured in Henry Per Radian) - Inductance Change with Angle means that as the iron vane moves, it alters the magnetic field, affecting the instrument's reading.
Spring Constant - (Measured in Newton Meter per Radian) - Spring Constant determines the restoring force of the spring opposing the deflection, ensuring accurate measurement by balancing the magnetic force from the current.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Current in Iron: 0.5 Ampere --> 0.5 Ampere No Conversion Required
Inductance Change with Angle: 10.5 Henry Per Radian --> 10.5 Henry Per Radian No Conversion Required
Spring Constant: 2.58 Newton Meter per Radian --> 2.58 Newton Meter per Radian No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
θ = (0.5*(imi)^2*dL|dθ)/Kmi --> (0.5*(0.5)^2*10.5)/2.58
Evaluating ... ...
θ = 0.508720930232558
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.508720930232558 Radian --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.508720930232558 0.508721 Radian <-- Deflection Angle in Iron

What is Moving Iron Instrument?

A moving-iron instrument is generally used to measure alternating voltages and currents. The moving element is an iron vane/plate. This iron is moved in a magnetic field produced by a stationary coil, which is excited by the current. On excitement, the coil behaves as an electromagnet, and the vane moves in such a way that the flux increases. Force is produced in the direction which results in the increment of coil inductance.
