AMPERE CIRCUITAL LAW
It states that the line integral of magnetic field over
a closed path is equal 0 the times the algebraic
sum of the current threading the closed path in free
space. Ampere's circuital law has the form

Here B.dl implies the integration of scalar

product B.dl around a closed loop called an
Amperian loop. The current ienc is the net
current encircled by the loop.

Note : If there are electric field E and magnetic field B both present in a region, then Lorentz force is
given by F q [E (v B)] .When E (v B) , net force because zero. In this situation, the

MOVING COIL GALVANOMETER
Principle
When a current carrying coil is placed in a magnetic field, torque acts on it. In moving coil galvanometer radial
field is used which is obtained from magnet having concave shape poles. In this type of field plane of the
coil is always parallel to the magnetic field so maximum torque acts on it.
= NIAB [ = 90° due to radial field]

where is angle formed by the pointer and C is restoring
torque/twist in the suspension wire.

Some Important Points :
1. An ideal ammeter has zero resistance.
2. An ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance.
3. An ammeter is connected in series in an electric circuit
4. A voltmeter is connected in parallel across the device whose potential difference is to be measured.
