A current of 10-7 A produces 50 division deflection in a galvanometer. The figure of merit would be:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Figure of merit is defined as the current which produces a deflection of one scale division in the galvanometer.
Here one division will give $\frac{10^{-7}}{50} = 2\times 10^{-9}A/div$
