Two moving coil galvanometers G1 and G2 have the . . .

Question : Two moving coil galvanometers G1 and G2 have the following particulars respectively : 

N1=30, A1=3.6×10-3 m², B1=0.25 T

N2=42, A2=1.8×10-3 m², B2=0.50 T

The spring constant is same for both the galvanometers. The ratio of current sensitivities of G1 and G2 is : 

a) 5:7

b) 7:5

c) 1:4

d) 1:1

Solution :

We know, 
current sensitivity is given by 
Is = Φ/I = NBA/k
So 
I1=N1B1A1/k — (1)
I2=N2B2A2/k — (2)

Dividing equation (1) by equation (2)

I1/I2 = [N1B1A1/k]/[N2B2A2/k]
I1/I2[N1B1A1]/[N2B2A2]
I1/I2 = [N1/N2]×[B1/B2]×[A1/A2]
I1/I= [30/42]×[0.25/0.50]×[
3.6×10-3 / 1.8×10-3]|
I1/I2 = [5/7]×[1/2]×[2]
I1/I2 = 5/7
I1:I2 = 5:7

Hence, (a) 5:7, would be the correct option.
