Answer
Correct option: D.
All of these
d
A soft iron core is used in a moving coil galvanometer. The soft iron core attracts the magnetic lines of force and hence the strength of the magnetic field increases if we use soft iron core. Thus the sensitivity of galvanometer increases. Also the use of soft iron core makes the magnetic field radial (i.e the plane of the coil will be always parallel to the direction of magnetic field).
