Two tangent galvanometers A and B have coils of radii 8 cm and 16 cm, respectively, and resistance 8 Ω each. They are connected in parallel with a cell of emf 4 V and negligible internal resistance. The deflections produced in the tangent galvanometers A and B are 30° and 60°, respectively. If A has 2 turns, then B must have

A compass needle free to turn in a horizontal plane is placed at the centre of a circular coil of 30 turns and radius 12 cm. The coil is in a vertical plane making an angle of 45° with the magnetic meridian. When the current in the coil is 0.35 A, the needle points west to east.
The current in the coil is reversed and the coil is rotated about its vertical axis by an angle of 90° in the anticlockwise sense looking from above. Predict the direction of the needle. Take the magnetic declination at the places to be zero.
