Source sentences:
text: A galvanometer can be calibrated to measure current as well as voltage.
text: It was found that each time the switch is closed, the galvanometer detects a current in one direction in the coil on the bottom.
text: Subsequent designs of ohmmeter provided a small battery to apply a voltage to a resistance via a galvanometer to measure the current through the resistance (battery, galvanometer and resistance all connected in series).
text: Circuit diagram for a galvanometer measuring current.
text: A galvanometer can be used to measure potential difference as well as current (although, in the former case, it is really measuring current).
text: Well a galvanometer also measures current, it's just a little more primitive and old-fashioned.
text: Each time the switch is opened, the galvanometer detects a current in the opposite direction.
