An early D'Arsonval galvanometer showing magnet and rotating coil. A galvanometer is an electromechanical measuring instrument for electric current.Early galvanometers were uncalibrated, but improved versions, called ammeters, were calibrated and could measure the flow of current more precisely.

The thermo-galvanometer designed by Mr W. Duddell can be used for the measurement of extremely small currents to a high degree of accuracy. It has practically no self-induction or capacity and can therefore be used on a circuit of any frequency (even up to 120,000~ per sec.) and currents as small as twenty micro-amperes can be readily measured ...
A vibration galvanometer is a type of mirror galvanometer, usually with a coil suspended in the gap of a magnet or with a permanent magnet suspended in the field of an electromagnet. The natural oscillation frequency of the moving parts is carefully tuned to a specific frequency; commonly 50 or 60 Hz. Higher frequencies up to 1 kHz are possible.
Action describes energy summed up over the time a process lasts (time integral over energy). Its dimension is the same as that of an angular momentum.. A phototube provides a voltage measurement which permits the calculation of the quantized action (Planck constant) of light.
We finally—finally—made it to the end of the year.And though the music releases have gone from summer’s deluge to a steady trickle, that doesn’t mean there aren’t some great new songs in ...
No. 25 Baylor showed little rust after more than a two-week break, rolling to a 107-53 victory over visiting Arlington Baptist on Friday night in Waco, Texas. The Bears (8-3) dominated in every ...
Late 19th or early 20th century. This galvanometer was used at the transatlantic cable station, Halifax, NS, Canada Modern mirror galvanometer from Scanlab. A mirror galvanometer is an ammeter that indicates it has sensed an electric current by deflecting a light beam with a mirror. The beam of light projected on a scale acts as a long massless ...
