As we learn

To find figure of merit of a galvanometer -

K= \frac{1}{\theta } \left ( \frac{E}{R+G} \right )

- wherein

K= Figure of merit

\theta= deflection angle

E= battery

R= Resistance

G= Galvanometer Resistance

 

 

 Figure  merit of galvanometer is current required to produce unit deflection on the galvanometer.
