A sensitive galvanometer produces large deflection for a_______________?
Correct answer: A. small value of current
- A. small value of current
- B. large value of current
- C. large value of power
- D. large value of voltage
- E. none of the above
Explanation
Sensitivity is the deflection produced per unit input, so a sensitive galvanometer gives a large deflection even when the current is small. This is why galvanometers are used for detecting very small currents.
