Question

The instrument that is based on the principle that when an electric current flows in a coil placed in a magnetic field, a deflecting torque acts upon the coil is:

A.

current carrying conductor

B.

moving coil flywheel

C.

rheostat

D.

moving coil galvanometer

Correct option is D

The principle described in the question is based on the fact that when an electric current flows through a coil placed in a magnetic field, a deflecting torque acts on the coil due to the interaction between the magnetic field and the current in the coil. This principle is the foundation of a moving coil galvanometer, which is an instrument used to measure small electric currents.
