In a meter bridge experiment,resistances are connected as shown in the figure. The balancing length $l_1$ is $55 \, cm$. Now,an unknown resistance $x$ is connected in series with $P$ and the new balancing length is found to be $75 \, cm$. The value of $x$ is

  • A
    $\frac{54}{13} \, \Omega$
  • B
    $\frac{20}{11} \, \Omega$
  • C
    $\frac{48}{11} \, \Omega$
  • D
    $\frac{11}{48} \, \Omega$
