Solution

The function of the non-magnetic metallic core in certain galvanometers is to bring the coil to rest quickly. This is done by damping the oscillations of the coil, which prevents it from swinging back and forth around the zero position for a long time after being deflected by a current. This allows for quicker and more accurate readings.
