[AFMC 1995]

Options:

A) Number of turn decreases

B) Number of turn increases

C) Field increases

D) None of the above

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

Sensitivity $ S=\frac{\theta }{i}=\frac{\theta }{K\tan \theta } $ where $ K=\frac{2RB _{H}}{{\mu _{0}}N} $ For increasing sensitivity K should be decreased and hence number of turns should be increased.
