Homework Statement
A galvanometer is connected to a solenoid, and there is a magnet bar entering the solenoid to induce an emf. What factors determine the displacement of the pointer of the galvanometer?
Homework Equations
emf (induced) = -N ΔΦ/ Δt
sensitivity of the galvanometer = θ/i
The Attempt at a Solution
That might be an easy question, but my textbook doesn't give me the answer and I would like to make sure of my solution.
When I read the question I though in various factor:
1. The rate of change of magnetic flux.
2. The number of turns of the solenoid.
3. The resistance of the solenoid.
4. The sensitivity of the galvanometer.
I just don't know how to pick the suitable factors to put in my exam, and the most convenient ones for the case mentioned above, i.e. a magnetic bar entering the solenoid to induce an emf.
So what is the best answer to the question?
