Moving coil galvanometer? If so, it is effectively an electric motor acting against a spring. the force from the motor is proportional to the current and the force from the spring is proportional to displacement. When they are equal, the needle (attached to the motor), stops. Moving iron meters rely on opposite magnetic poles repelling.

What is a NULL Point of a galvanometer?

Its a point on the galvanometer where the galvanometer shows no deflection as no current passes through it.


High resistance in parallel connected with galvanometer to form voltmeter?

That won't work. To convert an ammeter (a galvanometer is a very sensitive type of ammeter) you connect a high value resistor in series with it.


Does a galvanometer have a reversed current or not?

The current is reversed in a galvanometer


What is galvanometer constant and how to find it?

The galvanometer constant is the factor that relates the deflection of a galvanometer to the current passing through it. It is usually given as the current required to produce a unit deflection (such as one full-scale deflection) on the galvanometer. To find the galvanometer constant, you can pass a known current through the galvanometer and measure the corresponding deflection, then calculate the constant as the current divided by the deflection.


Why do you need to set a galvanometer to 0?

Zero is the normal position of the galvanometer when there is no detection in process.


Which circumstances would a current register on the galvanometer?

A current would register on a galvanometer when there is a flow of electric charge through the circuit that the galvanometer is connected to. The galvanometer measures the strength and direction of the current passing through it, displaying this information as a deflection on its dial.

Does galvanometer have polarity?

No, a galvanometer does not have polarity. It is a device used to detect and measure small electric currents. The deflection of the needle in a galvanometer indicates the presence and direction of the current but not the polarity.


How you convert galvanometer into ammeter in detail?

By attaching a resistance in parallel connection with the galvanometer. Or when a low resistor connected in parallel with galvanometer ,the galvanometer is converted in ammeter. and the resistor is called shunt resistance.
