In a meter bridge,the resistances $R$ and $S$ are such that the null point is found at a distance of $40 \text{ cm}$ from one end. If a resistance of $10 \Omega$ is connected in parallel with shunt $S$,then the null point occurs at $90 \text{ cm}$ from the same end. The values of the two resistances $R$ and $S$ respectively are:

In a meter bridge,the point $D$ is the neutral point (null point) as shown in the figure.

Resistances in the left gap and right gap of a meter bridge are $10 \Omega$ and $30 \Omega$ respectively. If the resistances in the two gaps are interchanged, the balance point will shift to the right by: (in $\text{cm}$)

$A$ resistance of $20 \Omega$ is connected in the left gap of a metre bridge and an unknown resistance greater than $20 \Omega$ is connected in the right gap. When these resistances are interchanged,the balance point shifts by $20 \text{ cm}$. The unknown resistance is (in $\Omega$)

In the meter bridge experiment,the length $AB$ of the wire is $1 \ m$. The resistors $X$ and $Y$ have values $5 \ \Omega$ and $2 \ \Omega$ respectively. When a shunt resistance $S$ is connected in parallel to $X$,the balancing point is found to be $0.625 \ m$ from $A$. Then,the resistance of the shunt $S$ is (in $\Omega$)
