$A$ galvanometer is used in a laboratory for detecting the null point in electrical experiments. If, on passing a current of $6 \ mA$, it produces a deflection of $2^{\circ}$, its figure of merit is close to (each division is $1^{\circ}$):

  • A
    $3 \times 10^{-3} \text{ A/div}$
  • B
    $333 \text{ A/div}$
  • C
    $6 \times 10^{-3} \text{ A/div}$
  • D
    $666 \text{ A/div}$
