SHORT QUESTIONS: (5X2 = 10)


1. What is the working principle of a galvanometer?
2. What is meant by the sensitivity of a galvanometer? How can we increase it?
3. What will be the effect on the strength of the magnetic field inside a solenoid (i) if the length of the solenoid is doubled
without the changing the no. of turns?, (i) if the length of the solenoid is unchanged but the no. of turns are halved?
4. If a proton moves in positive Y-direction in a region where a uniform magnetic field is directed along the negative X-
direction, what will be the direction of the magnetic force on the proton?
5. Why cannot magnetic force do work on a charge moving in a uniform magnetic field?

LONG QUESTION
6. How can a galvanometer be converted into an ammeter? Calculate the expression for the shunt resistance. Why should
an ammeter be connected always in series? Why should be the resistance of an ammeter be very small? (1+2+1+1=5)
