In a meter-bridge,if the left and right gaps are connected with $2 \Omega$ and $3 \Omega$ resistances,respectively,then the bridge is balanced. What resistance should be connected with the $3 \Omega$ resistance to get the balancing point at the midpoint of the bridge wire?

  • A
    $3 \Omega$ in series
  • B
    $3 \Omega$ in parallel
  • C
    $6 \Omega$ in series
  • D
    $6 \Omega$ in parallel

When the two known resistances $R$ and $S$ are connected in the left and right gaps of a meter bridge respectively,the null point is found at a distance $l_1$ from the zero end of the meter bridge wire. An unknown resistance $X$ is now connected in parallel with $S$,and the null point is found at a distance $l_2$ from the zero end of the meter bridge wire. The unknown resistance $X$ is:

Resistance in the two gaps of a meter bridge are $10 \, \Omega$ and $30 \, \Omega$ respectively. If the resistances are interchanged, the balance point shifts by .............. $cm$.

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:

The unknown resistances are connected in two gaps of a metre bridge. The null point is at $20 \ cm$ from the zero end. $A$ resistance of $15 \ \Omega$ is connected in series with the smaller of the two. The null point shifts to $40 \ cm$. The smaller resistance is (in $\Omega$)

In the experimental setup of a meter bridge shown in the figure,the null point is obtained at a distance of $40\,cm$ from $A$. If a $10\,\Omega$ resistor is connected in series with $R_1$,the null point shifts by $10\,cm$. The resistance that should be connected in parallel with $(R_1 + 10)\,\Omega$ such that the null point shifts back to its initial position is .............. $\Omega$.
