Question
A tangent galvanometer shows a deflection of 45° when 10 mA of current is passed through it. If the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field is `B_H = 3.6 xx 10^-5 "T"` and radius of the coil is 10 cm, find the number of turns in the coil.

Solution
Given :
Horizontal component of Earth's magnetic field,`B_H = 3.6 xx 10^-5 "T"`
Deflection shown by the tangent galvanometer, `θ = 45^circ`
Current through the galvanometer, `l = 10 "mA" = 10^-2 "A"`
Radius of the coil, r = `10 "cm" = 0.1 "m"`
Number of turns in the coil, n = ?
We know ,
`B_H tan θ = (u_0 In)/(2r)`
⇒ `n = (B_H tan \ θ xx 2r)/(u_0I)`
⇒ `n = (3.6 xx 10^-5 xx 2 xx 1 xx 10^-1)/(4pi xx 10^-7 xx 10^-2)`
⇒ `n = 0.57332 xx 10^3 = 573`
