About this document

Galvanometer Resistance Measurement Experiment by CHIRAG GUPTA is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This experiment aims to determine the resistance of a galvanometer using the half deflection method and find its figure of merit. Various resistances and a shunt resistance are used in series with the galvanometer to measure deflections. The resistance and figure of merit (current per division) are calculated from these measurements. Precautions are taken to ensure clean connections and constant battery voltage. Sources of error include dirty resistance plugs, loose screws, and varying battery voltage.
