Deflection in Galvanometer Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Deflection Angle = Voltage across Galvanometer*Voltage Sensitivity
θ_d = V*S_v
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Deflection Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Deflection Angle is the value indicated on a scale by a pointer that is connected to the suspension wire.
Voltage across Galvanometer - (Measured in Volt) - Voltage across Galvanometer refers to the potential drop between the ends of the galvanometer that occurs when a current flows through it.
Voltage Sensitivity - Voltage Sensitivity is defined as the deflection produced in the galvanometer when a unit voltage is applied across two terminals.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Voltage across Galvanometer: 15 Volt --> 15 Volt No Conversion Required

What is a Galvanometer?

A galvanometer is an electromechanical instrument used to detect and measure small electric currents. It operates on the principle that a current-carrying conductor placed within a magnetic field experiences a mechanical force, which can be translated into a deflection that can be measured.

How to Calculate Deflection in Galvanometer?

Deflection in Galvanometer calculator uses Deflection Angle = Voltage across Galvanometer*Voltage Sensitivity to calculate the Deflection Angle, The Deflection in Galvanometer formula is defined as the movement of the needle or pointer in response to an electric current passing through its coil. This movement indicates the presence and magnitude of the current, with the angle or amount of deflection proportional to the current's strength. Deflection Angle is denoted by θ_d symbol.

How to calculate Deflection in Galvanometer using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Deflection in Galvanometer, enter Voltage across Galvanometer (V) & Voltage Sensitivity (S_v) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Deflection in Galvanometer calculation can be explained with given input values -> 105 = 15*0.105.
