Two tangent galvanometers differ only in...

Two tangent galvanometers differ only in the matter of number of turns in the coil. On passing current through the two joined in series, the first shows a deflection of `35^@` and the other shows `45^@` deflection. Compute the ratio of their number of turns. Take `tan35^@=0*7`

The correct Answer is:
`7:10`

When two tangent galvanometers are connected in series, current passing through them is the same i.e. `I_1=I_2`
`(2rH)/(mu_0n_1)tantheta_1=(2rH)/(mu_0n_2)tan theta_2 :. n_1/n_2=(tan theta_1)/(tan theta_2)`
