What is a reduction factor of tangent galvanometer and its unit of measurement?

The reduction factor K of a tangent galvanometer is written on the instrument. The manual says that the current is obtained by multiplying this factor to tantheta . The procedure works well at Bhuwaneshwar. Will the procedure work if the instrument is taken to Nepal? If there is some error, can it be corrected by correcting the manual or the instrument will have to be taken back to the factory?

In a tangent galvanometer, the circular coils is unwound and rewound to have twice the previous radius. As a result of this the reduction factor (K) of the tangent galvanometer if

The reduction factor of a tangent galvanometer may be defined as the current passing through it to produce a deflection of

Assertion: Reduction factor (K) of a tangent galvanometer helps in reduction to current. Reason: Reduction factor increases with increase of current.

A tangent galvanometer ha s60 turns of wire of mean diameter 20 cm . Find the reduction factor of the tangent galvanometer at a place where the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field 0.32 xx 10^(-4) T .

The resistance of the coil of a tangent galvanometer is 60Omega . It is connected to a battery of negligible internal resistance. The deflection is found to be 60^(@) . Now a shunt resistance of 30Omega is connected across the coil of the tangent galvanometer. The deflection produced will be
