Resistances are connected in a meter bridge circuit as shown in the figure. The balancing length $l_{1}$ is $40\,cm$. Now an unknown resistance $x$ is connected in series with $P$ and the new balancing length is found to be $80\,cm$ measured from the same end. Then the value of $x$ will be $.......\Omega$.

In a metre bridge experiment, the resistance in the left gap is $15 \text{ } \Omega$ and in the right gap is $45 \text{ } \Omega$. The bridge is balanced. The distance of the null point from the centre of the wire is (in $\text{ cm}$)

In a meter bridge experiment,a null point is obtained at $20 \ cm$ from one end of the wire when resistance $X$ is balanced against another resistance $Y$. If $X < Y$,then where will be the new position of the null point from the same end,if one decides to balance a resistance of $4X$ against $Y$ (in $cm$)?

The meter bridge shown is in a balanced position with $\frac{P}{Q} = \frac{l_{1}}{l_{2}}$. If we now interchange the positions of the galvanometer and the cell,will the bridge work? If yes,what will be the balance condition?
