CHAPTER XXVI
GALVANOMETERS
If a compass needle be allowed to come to rest in its natural position,
and a current of electricity be passed through a wire just over it from
north to south, the north seeking end of the needle will be deflected
toward the east. If the wire be placed under the needle and the current
continued from north to south the needle will be deflected toward the
west. Again, if the current be passed from north to south over the needle,
and back from south to north under the needle, as shown in fig. 504, the
magnetic effect will be doubled, and the needle deflected proportionately.
Upon these phenomena depend the working of galvanometers.
