Moving coil galvanometre is a device which is used to detect current in a curcuit.
When current is passed throgh a galvanometer, the coil oscillates about its mean position before it comes to rest. To bring the coil to rest immediately, the coil is wound on a metallic frame. Now, when the coil oscillate, eddy currents are set up in the metallic frame, which opposes further oscillations of the coil. This inturn enables the coil to attain its equilibrium position almost instantly. Since the oscillation of the coil die out instantaneously, the galvanometer is called dead beat galvanometer.

"An ohmmeter is an electrical instrument that measures electrical resistance, the opposition to an electric current."The unit of measurement for resistance is ohms (Ω).It is useful device for rapid measurement of resistance. It is consist of galvanometer and adjustable resistance Rs of known value and a cell connected in series. The resistance R to be measured is connected between the terminals.The series resistance Rs is so adjusted that when the terminals are short circuited i.e., when R = 0, the galvanometer gives full scale deflection. So the extreme graduation of the usual scale the galvanometer is marked 0 for resistance measurement. When terminals are not joined no current passes through the galvanometer and its deflection will be zero . Thus zero of the scale marked as infinity. . When R is not infinite , the galvanometer deflects to some intermediate point depending on the value of R scale can be calibrated to read the resistance directly.
a ballistic galvanometer is a specially designed galvanometer suitable for measuring the total quantity of electricity or charge displaced by a varying current of short duration such as charging & discharging of a capacitor >>>>
You will need to send the application in to your local electrical company. Make sure to give good reasons why the meter must be removed.
What is the difference between the construction of a moving coil galvanometer and a ballistic galvanometer?
The weston type galvanometer is a moving coil galvanometer in which a pointer is attached to the coil for measuring deflection due to torque .
major disadvantage is that moving coil galvanometer is not suitable for a.c measurement

Yes.
A galvanometer with a low resistance shunt in parallel makes an ammeter.
it will not work
yes
A moving coil galvanometer is a type of scanning device used in the transportation and trucking industry. The vehicle is pulled through a fixed scanner while an operator watches a closed circuit television.
