NEETPhysicsMagnetic Effects of Current
Statement 1 The sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer is increased by placing a suitable magnetic material as a core inside the coil. and Statement 2 Soft iron has a high magnetic permeability and cannot be easily magnetized or demagnetized.
Options
- AStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1.
- BStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is not a correct explanation for Statement 1.
- CStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
- DStatement 1 is false, Statement 2 is true
Correct answer
C. Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
Step-by-step solution
c =B I N A = ( B N A c ) I Using iron core, value of magnetic field increases. So, deflection increases for same current. Hence, sensitivity increases. Soft iron can be easily magnetized or demagnetized. correct option is (c).
