AI Generated Solution

To find the torsional constant (K) of the suspension wire in a moving coil galvanometer, we can use the relationship between the torque acting on the coil, the current flowing through it, and the deflection angle. The formula we will use is: \[ \tau = n \cdot B \cdot I \cdot A \cdot \sin(\theta) \] Where: - \(\tau\) is the torque, ...
