In an experiment to determine the temperature coefficient of resistance of a conductor,a coil of wire $X$ is immersed in a liquid. It is heated by an external agent. $A$ meter bridge setup is used to determine the resistance of the coil $X$ at different temperatures. The balancing points measured at temperatures $t_1=0^{\circ} C$ and $t_2=100^{\circ} C$ are $50 \ cm$ and $60 \ cm$ respectively. If the standard resistance taken out is $S=4 \ \Omega$ in both trials,the temperature coefficient of the coil is

Consider a $72\, cm$ long wire $AB$ as shown in the figure. The galvanometer jockey is placed at $P$ on $AB$ at a distance $x\, cm$ from $A$. The galvanometer shows zero deflection. The value of $x$,to the nearest integer,is ..... $cm$.

In a meter bridge experiment,the balance point is obtained if the gaps are closed by $2\,\Omega$ and $3\,\Omega$ resistors. $A$ shunt of $x\,\Omega$ is added to the $3\,\Omega$ resistor to shift the balancing point by $22.5\,cm$. The value of $x$ is $................$

In a metre bridge experiment,the null point is obtained at $20 \,cm$ from the left end of the wire,when resistance $X$ is balanced against another resistance $Y$ $(X < Y)$. To balance a resistance $4X$ against $Y$,the new position of the null point from the same end will be: (in $\,cm$)

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 $\text{cm}$)
