What happens to the coil in a d' Arsonval meter when current is removed?

When current is removed from a d'Arsonval meter, the coil slowly rotates back to its original position due to the restoring force of the spring mechanism attached to the coil. The design of a d'Arsonval meter includes a lightweight coil suspended in a magnetic field. When current flows through the coil, it experiences a force which causes it to deflect and indicate a value on the meter scale. However, once the current is removed, the magnetic force that was acting on the coil is no longer present, allowing the spring to take over. The restoring spring exerts a torque that gradually returns the coil to its neutral, or original, position. This behavior is fundamental to the operation of analog meters and reflects how mechanical components in these devices interact with electric currents.
