How to Evaluate Deflection in Galvanometer?

Deflection in Galvanometer evaluator uses Deflection Angle = Voltage across Galvanometer*Voltage Sensitivity to evaluate the Deflection Angle, The Deflection in Galvanometer formula is defined as the movement of the needle or pointer in response to an electric current passing through its coil. This movement indicates the presence and magnitude of the current, with the angle or amount of deflection proportional to the current's strength. Deflection Angle is denoted by θd symbol.
