the current shouldbe uniform. By this apparatus current-strengths greater than HIG cannotbe measured. 359. Shape of the Coil.—In many galvanometers, no attempt ismade to calculate the constant Gdirectly; sensitiveness is the onlycharacter looked to.

We are thus led todiminish as much as possible the radius of the windings and there-fore the length of the…
