Given Data :

Plane of the coil of tangent galvanometer is kept parallel to magnetic meridian

Formula Used :

B=2μ0 in 2r

Detailed Solution :

This is the principle on which tangent galvanometer works
B=2μ0 in 2r n= no. of turms  i= current  r= radius of coil 
It is kept perpendicular to horizontal component of earth's magnetic field so that it ran not affect the magnetic field of coil

Hence, the correct option is C
