A Ballistic Galvanometer is a highly sensitive device used for measuring the charge or current produced during a brief electric pulse, often in research and laboratory settings. It operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction, where the moving coil is deflected by the current passed through it, which is proportional to the magnitude of the pulse. The deflection is recorded, providing information about the electric charge or impulse duration. It is particularly used in experiments involving the charging and discharging of capacitors, as well as other transient current studies.
Ballistic Galvanometers (100 or 500 Ohm) typically have a resistance value, which influences their sensitivity and the range of measurements. These devices are often used in applications that require high accuracy over short time intervals.
