    A)            While taking reading of tangent galvanometer, the plane of the coil must be set at right angles to the earth?s magnetic meridian

    B)            A short magnet is used in a tangent galvanometer since a long magnet would be heavy and may not easily move

    C)            Measurements with the tangent galvanometer will be more accurate when the deflection is around 45o

    D)            A tangent galvanometer cannot be used in the polar region

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               In tangent galvanometer experiment. The plane of the coil firstly set in the magnetic meridian.
