Question 6

A magnet kept at the centre of two coils A and B is moved to and fro as shown in the diagram. The two galvanometers show deflection.

A magnet kept at the centre of two coils A and B is moved to and fro as shown in the diagram. The two galvanometers show deflection. State with a reason whether x > y or x < y [x and y are magnitudes of deflection]. ICSE 2019 Physics Solved Question Paper.

State with a reason whether :

x > y

or

x < y [x and y are magnitudes of deflection].

Answer

x < y

Since, the coil A has less number of turns, therefore the e.m.f. generated in this coil will be less, hence the galvanometer x connected to this coil shows less deflection i.e., x < y.
