How to Evaluate Spring Constant in Galvanometer?

Spring Constant in Galvanometer evaluator uses Spring Constant = Controlling Torque/Deflection Angle to evaluate the Spring Constant, The Spring Constant in Galvanometer formula is defined as the stiffness or rigidity of the spring used to provide the restoring torque necessary for the instrument's operation. This spring is typically part of the suspension system that allows the coil and pointer to return to their zero position after deflection caused by the current flowing through the galvanometer. Spring Constant is denoted by K symbol.
