The gravity controlled instrument has crowded scale because current is proportional to________________?

Correct answer: C. sine of deflection angle

  • A. balancing weight
  • B. deflection angle
  • C. sine of deflection angle

Explanation

In a gravity-controlled instrument, controlling torque is proportional to sin θ. Since the deflecting torque balances it, the current is also proportional to sin θ, producing a crowded scale.
