Show Hint
- oscillates
- deflects towards X
- deflects towards X'
- does not deflect
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
When a magnet is moved towards a coil, it induces a current in the coil due to the change in magnetic flux, which causes the galvanometer needle to deflect. Similarly, when the magnet is moved away, the direction of the induced current changes, leading to the opposite deflection in the galvanometer. This results in oscillations as the magnet is pushed back and forth due to the alternating increase and decrease in the magnetic flux.
Thus, the galvanometer pointer oscillates.

In an experiment to determine the figure of merit of a galvanometer by half deflection method, a student constructed the following circuit. He applied a resistance of \( 520 \, \Omega \) in \( R \). When \( K_1 \) is closed and \( K_2 \) is open, the deflection observed in the galvanometer is 20 div. When \( K_1 \) is also closed and a resistance of \( 90 \, \Omega \) is removed in \( S \), the deflection becomes 13 div. The resistance of galvanometer is nearly:
