(12) __________________________ that exert forces on a loop of wire carrying a current can be used
to measure very small currents. A small loop of (13) __________________________ that is carrying a
current is placed in the strong magnetic field of a permanent magnet. The current through
the (14) __________________________ goes in one end and out the other. The
(15) __________________________ of the force on the wire resulting from the magnetic field
can be determined by using a right-hand rule. One side of the loop is forced
(16) __________________________ ; the other side is forced up. The resulting
(17) __________________________ rotates the loop. The magnitude of the torque acting on the loop
is proportional to the magnitude of the (18) __________________________ . This principle is used in
(19) __________________________ to measure small currents. A small spring in a galvanometer
exerts a torque that opposes the torque resulting from the current. Thus the amount of torque is
(20) __________________________ to the current. A galvanometer can be used as a(n)
(21) __________________________ or an ammeter. A galvanometer can be converted to an ammeter
by connecting it in (22) __________________________ with a resistor that has a resistance smaller than
that of the galvanometer. To convert a galvanometer to a voltmeter, the galvanometer is connected in
