55961 Ballistic Galvanometer Setup illustrates fundamental information about electromagnetic induction. It concerns “how electric field affects magnetic field and also reveals the mechanism of current sensing devices”. Ballistic Galvanometer Setup enables not only the detection of weak electric field but also measures it very precisely. Ballistic power supply is included with setup, in which we can generate very weak ambient electric field and can reveal this effect to the Ballistic Galvanometer as a detected deflection of coil. Lamp and scale arrangement is included for measurement of deflection.
