What is torsional constant of the spring used in a galvanometer?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the torsional constant of the spring used in a galvanometer, we need to understand the relationship between the torque acting on the loop in the magnetic field and the torsional constant of the spring. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understanding Torque in a Magnetic Field When a current-carrying loop is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a torque. The torque (\( \tau \)) on the loop can be expressed using the formula: \[ \tau = \mathbf{m} \times \mathbf{B} \] where \( \mathbf{m} \) is the magnetic moment of the loop, and \( \mathbf{B} \) is the magnetic field. ...
