The principle on which the operation of a D’Arsonal type galvanometer is based.
Answer to Problem 1PLA
The operation of a D’Arsonal type galvanometer is based on the principle that wire coil placed in a magnetic field would experience a torque when the current is applied.
Explanation of Solution
D’Arsonal type galvanometer can be calibrated to work as ammeter or voltmeter. And its mechanism is mainly based on the
The principle of D’Arsonal type galvanometer is based on the fact that wire coil placed in a magnetic field would experience a torque when the current is applied. Then the torque is exerted against a spring.
Therefore, the deflection of the needle attached to the coil in the galvanometer is proportional to the current in the coil.
Conclusion:
Thus, the operation of a D’Arsonal type galvanometer is based on the principle that wire coil placed in a magnetic field would experience a torque when the current is applied.

Now, how are you going to know what the field in the upper portion of the spectrometer is? You come up with a brilliant idea! You have a material that undergoes radioactive alpha decay (which we will study in the chapter on nuclear physics), where the ejected alpha particle is a helium nucleus: two protons and two neutrons. In this type of decay, the mass of the daughter particle (after the decay) is less than that of the parent particle (before the decay) by the mass of an alpha particle, 6.64 × 10-27 kg.
